1930 CHRYSLER 70 tappet

Do you have a Chrysler part number for that tappet? It is possible that it was used on other engines and if so the number will help figure that out.

I've found that for many mechanical parts on my 1933 Plymouth, I can match the original part number up to modern replacements using the Chrysler part number even if the particular vendor's listings only carry vehicle year based information back to, say, the 1950s.

Continuing from where hwellens started, the 1931 Chiltons Automotive Multi-Guide lists an interchange number of GU-31 for the 1930 Chrysler 70. That number matches the list given by hwellens but also includes a few more cars:

1925 Chrysler 6 B

1926 Chrysler 70

1927 Chrysler 60

1927 Chrysler 70

1928 Chrysler 62

1928 Chrysler 72

1929 Chrysler 65

1929 Chrysler 75

1930 Chrysler 6

1930 Chrysler 66

1930 Chrysler 70

1930 Chrysler 77

1929 DeSoto 6

1930 DeSoto Finer 6

1930 DeSoto 8

1930 Dodge DC 8

1930 Dodge DD6

1929 Pierce Arrow 133, 134

1930 Pierce Arrow A

1930 Pierce Arrow B

1930 Pierce Arrow C

1930 Plymouth

1928 Studebaker Pres. 8

1929 Studebaker Pres. 8

1930 Studebaker Pres. 8

The 1930 Plymouth gets me into parts books that I have. The 1928 Plymouth is shown having one part number while the 1929-32 Plymouths another. The Chilton's "1930 Plymouth" appears to match up to what most people consider the "1929 model U" nowadays. That used part number 605340 which is shown in the 1928-33 Plymouth Master Parts List as being used on the model U (1929), 30-U (1930), PA (1931) and PB (1932) Plymouths.

So it could be that Chrysler part number 605340 superceded part number 50483. (Most of the 60nnnn numbers are for 1933 or up parts, so this is probably a reasonable guess.)

Unfortunately, I have not found a more modern cross reference for either part 50483 or part 605340. Nor do the vendors that I normally look at for Plymouth parts show those numbers or cars listed.

I have Chrysler Parts Supersedence Book printed in 1947 that states part number 50483 was superseded by 391491.

Also the 605340 was superceded by 391491

Same part.
