| '58 Rocker Stand? |
| By Mike McQuesten - 06/11/2001 11:48:07 PM; IP 63.50.107.17 |
| Here's a question for all of you "experienced" FE fanatics. I began disassembling an early '58 352 "Police Interceptor" about a year ago. It looks as if it has never been torn down before. The engine is still in a 4 door Country Sedan w/automatic. Too rusty to save. It's been sitting since 1967. Bent push rod on intake #5 cylinder may have been what put it out of commission. I pulled the adjustable rockers/shafts off at the beginning of this disassembly. I didn't look closely at them until yesterday as I started to clean them. I'm sending them to Rocker Arm Specialist Co. in Anderson, CA as cores. I'm buying their package that includes new adj. screws/locking nuts/HD shafts/aluminum spacers/HD Bilet aluminum support kit. My question here is about one of the stands on the old '58 set. The stand in question is a second one in. It has a little tube pressed into the stand. It has a unique part #: EDC-6531-0 while the other seven stands are all 6750102. All the stands are aluminum. It appears obvious that this little tube would have something to do with oiling. But what is it's purpose? This is the oldest FE I've ever been into. The car was built in October, '57. |
