Re: need help

yeah they have them, but they're all chrome, i just wanted one of the originals so I didn't have 6 dull and 1 shiny chrome, and I didn't want to buy 2 packs of chrome ones, which is what i'll have to do if I can't find 1...thanks for looking though.

Re: need help

I think I remember when I pulled this head that it was missing one of those clamps...wish I would've thought to try and find another while I was at the junk yard...

Re: need help

maybe get one chrome one sand/grind them all a little and paint them all black. the chrome one may be a little brighter showing through the black so maybe put that one where its not highly visable like the back or the one near carb hopefully the carb will hide it or put in front, bend new fuel line to block it from view or when u put the wires on(if u do) have them block it? thats what i'd do just me thinking out loud....

Re: need help

Isn't that washer (or whatever it's called) the same as on a V-8?
