looking for a 429 heat riser and cruise control unit

[Christian Doerk]

I am looking for a functioning heat riser valve and a cruise control for a 1964 Cadillac.

In principle, the heat riser flap does not have to work. It is only important that the spacer / housing is not broken or has a crack.

Cruise control does not have to work 100% either. The shaft bushings must not be knocked out.

Does anyone have something like that lying around?

Here's an idea for the spacer: I don't know if you have access to a machine shop. Luckily for me, my neighbor is a machinist and made a spacer out of scrap metal when my heat riser cracked. He tried welding the heat riser first but he did not like the result. The spacer fits perfectly and the exhaust has been leak-free for about 10 years now. Here is a picture of the spacer & old heat riser:
