Yo Eddy for was same as BOI, just had larger diameter blades. The curved blade fork that looks kind of like a Yo or BOI was made by Tange and was used on the Monster and Buck.

BOI vs Yo Eddy forks:
Big One Inch specs... Debut around the time of the TI introduction Dropout to race length - 15.9375" suspension corrected to 63mm Rake offset - 1.57" or 6 degrees BOI forks use 1.0" diameter tubing for the legs and crown Yo Eddy specs... Used from late eighties until BOI intro Dropout to race length - 15.5" for standard geometry Yo Eddy forks use 1.125" diameter tubing for the legs and crown. |

I like his answer better ^^^
I wasn't even thinking about A2C changes. The curved blade Tange fork seems to have come in a couple different A2C while we're at it. Some were about 15.9" like the BOI (roughly Mag 21 or Manitou 2?) and others were a bit longer like the one I have, which is 16.25 (Judy, Manitou 3-4?).
