Ron,
Thanks, I didn't use capitalization (mc cord -vs- McCord) and only got
33,000 that were limited in value. I guess I am getting lazy from texting
my kids.
The 7th hit down appears to be an endorsement for McCord quality. Nice set
I got. While complete, it also included three sets of intake gaskets and
more waterpump gaskets than I ever hope to need (about 5).
Strange, I went to the Mopar Spring Fling in Van Nuys, CA and I got a
complete gasket set ($5) and a new oil pump shaft ($1) for a SB Ford. I
Guess the Rootes/Chrysler connection was on my side. Also of interest, -
Leno was there with the Chrysler Turbine car.
Thanks, Tom
