Sorry to hear. I remember going to his shop in Reading to pick up the 283 for the 61 Corvette Jr. Stocker.
Nice fellow, who could build a great motor.
RIP

Rest in peace my friend. He built us a screaming 327 back in 1984, we had it in a 67 SS Nova, motor was a roller motor (built to Super Stock specs), had head work that was incredible. Prayers to his family!
