I don't know if Wreckerman has the ability to deal with stuff that big that's disabled but he's dead reliable and has saved clintogf and my bacon on a couple occasions.
He's also amusing.
There are a couple of other members who have posted up that they can assist in Redstone ops, I'd do a...
Apparently this was a situation where an older gentlemen had it , then stopped driving it for whatever reason and it sat. He passed away, widow didn't understand it's historical significance, sent it off to scrap.
I won't be able to get a title. Ga. just flat out will not issue titles for...

Military rockwell = greased bearings.
Do a search for "oil bath" and you'll find the thread(s) discussing this.
Phil just got our last set of extra bumperettes. The spring bolts can be had from hardware places, half the time they're ruined anyhoo.

They did not refer to multiple torque values
Gaskets sealed reasonably well, after about 3 years a few mild leaks are visible on the passenger side of the block where the deck meets the heads.
Bought a complete multi engine gasket kit from a member I don't see here on the site anymore. Can't...
When they're "right" they're quiet. Much quieter than an M-22. And I'm familiar with M-22's.
I've got a couple that are really noisy in 5th gear-haven't pulled them down yet, but I'll guess it's bearings. One has been like this for 5+ years.
