Default Looking for Waukesha 6-SRK engine

Looking for a Waukesha 6-SRK engine, complete or parts. We (the Chazy Volunteer Fire Department) have a 1934 Buffalo Pumper that has a cracked cylinder head. Any and all help or information would be greatly appreciated.

If nothing turns up right away, check with the Wauk Eng Hist Soc to see if : (Note: see new site adds post here)
(1) a head from a 6SRL or 6SRS might fit; they share a lot of gaskets, but not head gaskets, BUT looking at the illus in a 38 Victor the one that fits the SRL/SRS looks the same as the one for the SRK except for two additional holes between the inner cylinders, which might not matter...
(2) there's also a 6SRKR, same b/s but higher comp/HP (I believe the "R" as used here meant heavy duty--heads might be usable)...
The SRK/SRKR and SRL/SRLR were used in a number of over the road trucks pre and postwar (the SRS I'm not sure about): I can easily eyeball some ref's and advise some trucks that used them. These were also in a lot of ind'l/const eqpmt; you might also post on hcea and aths. If checking obsolete parts dealers a good list is in the "Parts And Services" section of aths. Good luck
