And believe it or not Pete, my dad worked at Hill auto parts in the 70's (up to his death in 77) and I knew Jim Burns the owner of Hill Machine quite well and he and Dan (the cylinder head guru) did a lot of work for me. Jim retired years ago and I no longer have any contact with them.
Well, even if I couldn't help, it's always neat to run into someone that remembers the "olden dayz"....lol

Jim was one of my customers when I had my shop in Ballard.
