I've got some nice used ones, and suspect other members do too. Are you needing the bent oil fill for a 1968 AC car, or straight one? Then the water neck, are you needing the correct thermostat cover?

That seems like one of them things where you want an NOS part, or the best used OEM part you can get, and refurbish it to your stringent standards. The common straight OFT might be available, and probably even NOS recent-GM production.... but a real OEM '68 part will probably have subtle differences.

This looks exactly like the old RobbMc units. RobbMc no longer lists them and this place says out of stock. Could try calling them and see.

BTR also makes a different design

I see the oil fill tubes for sale all the time over on ROP.

I went with a March Performance oil tube. Haven't installed it yet but looks good.

Sent an email to Robb of RobbMc about the water neck and this is what he replied:


"We no longer make the billet water necks for Olds and AMC because sales were slow. But I will add your name and email address to a list of people who are interested. When we get at least 10 or 15 people interested, I will contact you again and see if you want to pay in advance. If at least ten people will do so, we'll make another run.

Thanks,

Robb"


If you are interested his email is racnrobb@charter.net

Anyone else interested in one of these? I emailed him a year ago and was told the same thing (at least 10 needed). I wish I had bought one when they were still available.
