Re: 352 vs. 320 parts, inspection

Posted by humanpotatohybrid On 2023/12/9 21:04:28

After a bit of research, here is the list. The notation is, e.g. "55--56" means there are two styles: one for 1955, and one for 1956. Note that these apply to groups and not parts. For example, some bearings are the same on all engines as a set, but not interchangeable amongst themselves. The intended purpose of this cross reference if if you have an engine for parts, or a spare rebuild kit for a different engine, what can be used. Note also that some different parts would be compatible between different engines even though they are not the same; further research may be required in this regard, specific to the part in question.

Most electrical and fuel parts are not included since they are already easily cross-referenced in the Specifications list in the service manual.
