Rick Lake Rick since you have always been willing to help others (including Hoish) at the drop of a hat I took the liberty of editing your latest post. You're most welcome...kiss mine first.

Sorry, I am keeping a spare motor complete just like the racers. I have everything needed to repair my car when I go to Run&Gun: 2 trans, spare rears, 3.07 and another 3.31, with all the bearings and seals to rebuild one. 2 trans for the car (5 spd and 6 spd.), and a motor hoist. I drive 1K miles to play, the car breaking is not stopping me from my fun and vacation.

Last year, I took time out to pull the trans axle on Hersch Byrd's GT-40, which broke the starter. The ring on the flywheel was toast, but the clutch was ok. They put the car back together and push started the car. He got to run on the road course and drag race without a starter.

Lew Paine had a Flaming River rack with a bad inner tie rod end. I used my trailer to take him to Granite City to find one. I got yelled at for going through the tunnel with my rig. I blamed it on a full moon. I used up my mulligan for the week. Took half the day to find a rack. That sucked. A manufacture at R&G sold one off his show car and Lew got to race.

If you look on E-bay or FE Forum, you may find a set of heads. Call me for some other info.
