Fellow Piet folks:My mechanic recently did a ring job/valve grind/conrod bearingjob on my A-65 and the engine is much happier now.However, it was decided that I should start looking for another A-65core for future use. The main thing I'm looking for is a good crankthat can still be ground or a freshly ground crank that hasn't beenabused. If I find a core I would really need to split the case tosee if there is anything usefull inside...Anybody have an A-65 around the Texas area?P.S. This will probably be the subject of a major overhall andconversion to A-75.Thanx,Kevin1982 Piet1956 Tri-Pacer________________________________________________________________________________
