Well, its been a little slow going, but the block as shown above is fixed and needs only some good clearance checking and cleaning and it should be ready to go, and this week, the crank came back all fixed....Thank goodness. That would have been expensive to replace.

So now if AJ Casini will just return my call, I can get an idea on the replacement parts I know I need.

And where do I get one of those oil filter plates that will sandwich in there and allow me to go to a accumulator?
