 Do you still need to know interchange information for these pots Kevin?

Here is full size Chevrolet. This appears to be your most hopeful source. There is some other scattered fitment so if you think you might have something, just give me make and model and I can check it.

Somebody in your area has to have something in that list I hope.

If not, I know where I can get some but as you know it's a bit of a challenge to buy parts off him these days and it would be a week.

Is that engine & stand sitting on a sliding floor? I'm trying to figure what those side rails are for, it might be a race of some sort.
