Packard8 Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 Hi folks. I need to re-seal a 1956 374 cid V8 marine conversion. Basically need intake & exhaust, oilpan, valve cover, water pump ports (4 front, 2 rear) & fuel pump gaskets. Seems that the usual vendors are selling kits (valve grind and/or overhaul kits) which include a lot of stuff I don't need..(mainly head gaskets). If you have any of the above for sale please let me know.ThanksJohn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tritone Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 Packard8 -Sorry, I don't have your gaskets, but I do have 2 352 Stokes conversions.Is yours a Stokes, or other?Would love to see pix to compare w/minetritone at rockisland dot comTIA,James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Packard8 Posted February 12, 2012 Author Share Posted February 12, 2012 Hi James, thanks for the reply. This conversion was done by Andres Marine, Stockton CA. Nice stainless manifolds and copper plumbing, dual thermostats etc. The block is a 1955 320 cid stamped "SP 087" where you would normally see the Packard or Stude GH serial number. Do yours have a similar S/N? Also, this has an extended oilpan with an internal cooler...does the Stokes? I'd be interested in seeing yours, and determining the correct raw water pump setup.Do yours have a similar reverse gear?Cheers,John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
