Rebuilding motor

Post by monzadon »

I have my 65, 140 motor tore down, since Clark's is closed is there any place else where i can get the parts i need to rebuild my motor? I need two pistons plus rings, rod bearings and a complete gasket set

Just out of curiosity, what type will the other 4 pistons be?

They are the original pistons, the motor has 72,000 on it the two i need to replace were damaged by the valves hitting them

Clark's is open now. Check your other pistons closely for cracks. LM factory pistons tend to crack around the ring lands.
