My Kirkham is out of action again. Pulled two rocker shaft mounting studs on left side. Seems previous owner (or his builder) used a threaded iron plug to re-insert studs into the head. Only problem is, the plugs only engaged 3 or 4 threads and they pulled out. Good news.....I have the name of a great flatbed tow service in the South Bay! Car is at T.O.E. Performance in Suisun City. Bad news may be that engine has to be pulled again to fix heads.
