looking for heads

I'm acting as an intermediary for a computer-illiterate friend who has a

1929 Durant Sport which he races in historic races. It has a Continental 6-cylinder side-valve engine. He needs new cylinder heads for his motor.

If anyone can help, it will be appreciated.

Thanks

Roger

Re: looking for heads

I'm sure some of the Durant club members have spare heads sitting back somewhere, I may have one myself. Perhaps we could see some pics of this racing machine and some history on it???

Hello Rick,
Yes it is Raymond who is looking for heads. I'm trying to dig up a photo of his car to share with aficionados.

To an earlier question, yes, I belong to the Allard Owners Club. You can see my work at www.allardj2x.com or drop into my West Coast dealership, Allard West in Santa Monica.
