Re: [FWDLK] Engine Bolt

[David Homstad <dhomstad@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Larry,

Those rocker arm mounting studs are unique to the Dodge Poly motor, 2 per
head. They feed oil from the head to the rocker arm shaft. The P/N is
1552963 in case you want to search for an NOS part. I would look in a
salvage yard for any 55 - 58 Dodge Poly (270, 315, 325) motor. Anything with
the valve cover still on should be well preserved in oil. Hemis are
different and A series (277, 301, 318, 326) engines are different. Some 55
and 56 Plymouths used the Dodge motor and some 57 DeSotos.

Subject: Re: [FWDLK] Engine Bolt

I received no response on this, so does anyone know who might carry these?
After removing the bolts, I saw two of the four had been broken off at the
top.  The bolts go from the rocker assembly, through the valve cover and
have a hollow area to facilitate the flow of oil to the heads.  Is this
specific to the 325?  How about 315/326/???

Who might be a source?  Roberts?  PAW?  Help!!
