Finally got the motor yanked out of my old ITE/AIX car. The car ran last in 2003 after winning the SFR SCCA ITE regional championship - water pump nipple failed in a post season race at Thunderhill, I parked the car in my new shop and built a business.
Here's where it was earlier yesterday: (IMG:http://www.blainefabrication.com/projects/2012_08_05/IMG_5293.JPG) prices are OBO plus shipping Valvetrain: Comp Cams ChroMo 1.6 roller rocker arms for 7/16" studs, excellent condition Manley pushrods excellent condition $ set of GM roller lifters with retainers and spider, excellent condition OEM (cracked with splint) oil pump drive (IMG:http://www.blainefabrication.com/projects/2012_08_05/IMG_5296.JPG) (IMG:http://www.blainefabrication.com/projects/2012_08_05/IMG_5297.JPG) ARP head bolts (IMG:http://www.blainefabrication.com/projects/2012_08_05/IMG_5298.JPG) ported heads by Doug Rippe Motorsports, with big stainless Ferrea valves. Ports and seats were fluffed by Mike Blackstone of Watson Racing prior to the last season on the car. (IMG:http://www.blainefabrication.com/projects/2012_08_05/IMG_5299.JPG) (IMG:http://www.blainefabrication.com/projects/2012_08_05/IMG_5302.JPG) (IMG:http://www.blainefabrication.com/projects/2012_08_05/IMG_5303.JPG) Sometime in the 9years that the car was sitting in my shop or garage, some water got into #7 and 8, rusting the bores and leaving this residue in the intake ports - valves are stainless, I think they should clean up OK. The orange residue on the combustion chambers brushed right off. (IMG:http://www.blainefabrication.com/projects/2012_08_05/IMG_5308.JPG) (IMG:http://www.blainefabrication.com/projects/2012_08_05/IMG_5310.JPG) (IMG:http://www.blainefabrication.com/projects/2012_08_05/IMG_5311.JPG) Got a port matched intake also, pics later.

Hi Alan. I know it's not listed, but do you have happen to have the wiring that goes from the optispark to the ignition part of the wiring loom. The Dynaspark that we installed had the wiring built into the Dynaspark unit so we pitched the cable, figuring the Dynaspark was the last opti replacement we'd ever need. The one time I don't horde something and it comes back to bite me.

Jason Jason - That is a part that needs to be replaced every couple years anyway - the opti end connector will corrode, gets a green fuzz on it. Caspers makes a harness for the late opti with the long snout. $45 at Summit, part number CEI-108097 I used to keep one in stock, not sure if I have one now, I can check tomorrow.
