    Got a 67 Riv GS for dirt cheap years ago. Only thing wrong with the motor was a stuck closed heat riser. Carb was boiling, no power, rough idle hot..... 10 minutes after I was home and wired it open I was smokin the tires.....and running smooth as silk.

    Does anyone know if these will fit the 300/340 V8?

    I have the pieces ready for shipping now. I painted them black in order to keep them from rusting. It is not a high heat paint.

    I had to make an adjustment to the price, the cost for the part now is $65.00 shipped in the U.S. and
    Puerto Rico. All others will be $60.00 plus the actual shipping cost. I prefer payment through PayPal but will accept a money order also.

    Following the site's rules, please post interest for the part on this thread and we will follow that order for the sales.
