In search of 8mm valve caps

Any sources here in the USA? My race bike uses 7mm shims and I tried EMS Duc. But modern day 7mm shims aren't actually 7mm. They are something less than that. Like 6.85mm. I wasn't sure if the 8mm shims for modern Ducs will fit the 8mm valves of the singles.

Although now that I think about it, I should probably order from one of the Alfa Romeo sites. Centerline Apfa seems to carry pretty good stock of 8mm shims.

The modern 8mm shims will fit singles.
