Will an Oscar Spinner top fit a GGG spinner mech?

And if so ... err, any idea on where to find one? I'd SOOOO love to have an authentic Tempest knob, and it seems like the Oscar top comes damn close.
So a leper walks into a bar and as he gets his beer, a finger falls off. The bartender who is serving him turns and pukes all over the place. The leper, feeling bad, says, "Was it my finger falling off?" The bartender turns to him and says, "No, it's the guy dipping chips into your back."

I have an Oscar knob around here someplace.  He used a standard 1/4" shaft, so any knob that fit an Oscar spinner should also fit a TurboTwist2.

I also have a very limited quantity of "Tempest-Style" knobs that I have been hoarding for some reason  ;D  I could probably be persuaded to include one with a TT2 for an additional $9.95 if anyone is interested.
