Looking for a Shovel motor...
A friend here had his Shovel's motor grenade on him yesterday. He was doing about 70 on the interstate when it grenaded on him. Blew the bottom four fins worth of the right side and front of the front jug clean out. The piston jammed into the opening and locked up the engine. He said the pucker factor was up around 9.5
Since it also cracked and blew a chunk out of the left side case, he is looking for a replacement engine. Anybody have or know of an available one?

Have him check with Nicks Cycle salvage in Williamstown NJ. Guy has a scrap yard of EVERYTHING, including complete engines.

When he gets the new engine, tell him to put oil in this one.

Sure was ugly, but he seemed to take it in stride. Is he a Berks guy, Scabby?
