    Mopar LA series engines, 318, 340, 360 and maybe even 273? Seems like the Offy Dual Port was never that popular, was the concept aimed at mileage or performance?

    Anthony, can you give us a general idea of how much is left for the last day. Saturday? Tried to get away to come today, couldn't make it happen. Hoping for the last day. Any idea what happens to the leftover stuff?

  9. Rumors are a possible auction
    Also hear a liquidator make get the contents

    what’s left? A lot.
    Got kinda upset at myself for not looking thru some of the piston boxes before today. There’s an .030 set of Jahns 2 valve relief 265-283 pistons. I just assembled one.
    There’s a set of domes as well.
    Seems to be lots of smalls. Oddball stuff.
    Flathead pistons
    Yblock pistons
    Pushrods and odd ball lifters. lots of gaskets.has a huge stack of flathead copper gaskets.
    seems to still be flathead bearings still there. Some guy was there today buying all the brake parts.
    Had lots of engine swap mounts. Hurst stuff
    BBC roller cams
    Some multi carb linkage kits.
     
  10. Some of the non hurst shifters.

    Dang wish I was closer, just picking through all the goodies would be a total rush. On second thought maybe it’s a good thing I’m so far away lol

    This would be ideal for someone who does the big swap meets.

    Glad it's not getting scrapped, I wonder what it would take to buy it all? Probably going to be a relative bargain for someone who has some decent cash up front and space to warehouse it. That shit would do great on eBay given some time and effort.
