During one of my last conversations with Mickey Thompson, he had mentioned 
that he had a few pairs of Pontiac hemi heads at his storage facility in 
Wilmington (California, Joe) on "C" street, a block away from Daeco.   I was 
supposed 
to have met him at his storage place to get a pair of these heads (I had a 
'67 GTO at the time) but I was never able to make our meeting for obvious 
reasons.   No one seems to know what happened to the stuff he had stored but I 
would 
love to know what happened to those heads.

Mike in L.A.
