I think he's still up the road in Fair Play, SC. I used to post a lot under a different user name several years ago and Clams was definitely the best. He rebuilt my 1976 1500 4 years ago and it still runs strong.
I hope Clams doesnt go to far. I talked to him a little while ago about rebuilding a 115 for me and I've just about got everything gathered together for him. He seems to be the go-to guy with these I6 Mercs.
