bill bierman, how races the 'suicide king' studebaker and the 'von bierman' henry j, had some oiling problems with his newly-finished 27 't'. he's pre-registered to race it, but needs a new rotating assembly. anybody have a parts source for factory parts or donovan alcohol race pieces?
That things is bad ass! What are you looking for exactly? I know a few guys around here that have some hemi stuff
he needs a good crank and would like some aluminum rods and oversized pistons. it WAS a standard bore 392, so any piston would be okay...
I have a set of nitro (.030 ) race pistons( 392) . ( arias or venolia -i think) - no pins or buttons - but they are still pretty nice.DOnt know if you can you them,also have a set of 493 series 354 heads . Mitch
I would suggest you call Claude Lavoie at (780) 914-6656. Claude is a nostalgia fuel racer that is reproducing 392 type engines. Good luck and happy parts hunting Dale
do you still need crank i believe i have what you need also there is a set of o ringed heads and a o ringed block
He may still want another crank, we had to pull one out of another core he had, also had to steal 4 rods from the same engine. Good news is, I finished checking bearing clearance today and It will be assembled tomorrow. (Mostly. Bill still needs to bring the oil pan.) Should have it back to him by the end of the week.
