Can anyone help me locate collets, springs and tappet adjusters for a 1914 Stutz 4 cyl 6.5 litre engine I am rebuilding. I am happy to buy second hand and am having no luck in the UK. Other engine parts needed. Many thanks Simon Diffey.

Mike Holt (details in VSCC list) may know: he rebuilt a 1918 Stutz not that many years ago.

Failing the above, give me a call re Stutz contacts in the US who may well provide useful leads.

I have tried the usual suspects ubove and they have all made their parts from scratch in a time before these amazing forums, where I hope someone will know where there are old or new parts, otherwise I will re-invent the wheel. At least people will know and if I can help anyone else needing engine parts for the early big four Stutz engine I will. I have also signed up with the AAA Club forum without luck, so Doug expect my call.
