Approximately .100" diameter reduction. That's going to require a thin wall reducer bushing, either steel or brass. I'll probably machine a piece of seamless steel tubing to make the adapter sleeve and press fit it into the rocker shaft standoffs, then drill it for the 3/8" attaching bolts. The rocker shaft can handle that amount of diameter change without any ill effects, I believe. Jerry
