All, I am again on the search for a part for my engine - 12 months in and there seems to be a new problem. We have taken the whole engine out again since there seems to be an oil pressure problem so the engine shop is checking the valves and springs and everything else again. They mentioned that the front engine cover has a little wear and even so they do not believe this is the reason for the issues they suggested I should try to find a "good looking" used one. Looking forward to hearing from…See More

There is a restoration service called The Horn Works who my son…
