Conley motor parts

Post by ironside »

I'm looking for parts for the Conley engine 427, it is one of the last runs that was made. I'm especially interested in finding a flywheel with good gear teeth on it. I don't know why he didn't make extra parts for this motor, but it's one way to get to sell his new 609 motor.

Well he would make everything to order to keep costs down because he was making everything on a limited budget and then tragedy hit, read story here http://www.conleyprecision.com/about_us.htm

But good luck finding parts, and if you cant find one maybe someone can give you measurements and you can reproduce it at a local machine shop.

The parts people need are never the cast parts that were lost. They are the machined parts he made, electrical or even instructions. You cant get any of those items from him. Its a real shame.
