Re: V-45 Johnson Head Gaskets

[gearhead4]

Hi George,

I called Doug and he said he no longer has them for sale! Now I’m not sure what else I can do other than have a batch custom made from somewhere which seems like it’d be expensive or somehow seal up the originals with some sort of sealant or epoxy. I’ve heard of a couple different methods but I’m particular with these things and will likely have the new ones made up.

I still have to pull the heads off for a complete inspection so till that time, I’ll hold off on figuring out this matter but if anyone out there has a set, I’d definitely buy them. Also I’m planning on doing the repair to the center main that Steve was talking about at Tomahawk but will need more information before I attempt anything. Will have to get in touch with him before I do anything further.

I’ll also keep my eyes out for the stolen motors since I’m up in that area, just read your post as I was looking for this one. Feel free to email me more info, absolutely willing to help in any way I can as I do check craigslist all the time!

Matt
