The cooler seals are the same as an early T-1. It jsut takes 4 of them.

I will have to go measure mine on the unmolested '64. I tore it down
this weekend to the case. And called it quits for the evening.

For anyone that doens not monitor the Type34 list, I will probably not
be reusing the "S" pistons/cylinders or the heads. So if anyone is
interested, they will be available.
BTW, the engine was not frozen like others we have seen pictures of
lately. It just had a LARGE mouse nest in the fan housing. But, it is
going to be very fresh when it goes back together, but not dark. 1600cc
at the most, and keep single port heads.
