I have a McCoy Redhead .29 Racing Engine that dates back to the early to mid '50s. I was wondering if anyone knows anything about this motor as for as what to run it on and if ther are any replacement parts available. Any info would be helpfull.

I also have an old Johnson .29 thats from the late '50s but it need a new (head gasket)? i think. Does anyone have any info on this motor.

Once again, All info would be helpfull.

Thanks
You will need to cut your own gasket. I had some Johnson 35's, never took them apart. I don't know if the gasket is a compsition type or aluminum. My McCoy's had composition head gaskets.

You can buy the composition material at the auto parts or industrial supply store.
