We have a ZR1, ZR2 and a ZR4 we would like to find parts for. Currently we are looking for 3 usable cylinder jugs and 2 heads. Cylinder jugs do not need to be perfect just not eat up with salt. Thanks

Tom,
Suggestion due to the lack of good ZR cylinders.
It looks like you have a ZR1 ZR2 and a ZR4.
That adds up to 7 cylinders, and you need 3. I am assuming that you have 4 good cylinders.
So this being the case fix either the 4 or the 1 and the 2.
I would suggest the 4 since the singles are quite common (I have 3 of them and know of at least 4 or 5 others) and I can think of a couple of 2s as well.
The Coats down in DL have a real good 4 and Mystic has at least 1 good 4 and may have several others that are maybe in display as cosmetic condition.
The interesting thing is that Palmer must not have had many dealers in the Great Lakes or other fresh water areas. I have always thought that good cylinders and heads should/would show up from there. That just seems to NOT be the case.
Hope this helps
Ernie
