@woodlandcammo27 The Larks came with two engines, and inline six or a V8 in assorted displacements, the six was only a 170 cid engine though. I haven't looked lately but Kanters had engine parts and EGGE machine would as well, the Studebaker drivers club would know. Many of the accesories were sourced from outside Studebaker like electrical parts, carbies, and transmissions for example. A copy of the Hollander manual will tell you what non Studebaker cars used the same parts.
I have got a very good hint for you to keeping the nice old vintage Engine in good shape with todays ultra dry eco fuels: Use 1:100 API TC two stroke oil / fuel mix as regular driving fuel, that keeps the old fuel-system gaskets, rubber parts, alloy parts etc... and cast iron metal surfaces of those vintage engines in excellent shape...and it also lubricates the valves and upper piston regions. Most Mercedes vintage owners in Germany do so :) Also keeps carb clean as new!
Where did you buy all your engine parts from? I might be buying one of these.
