Also as I go through tins of mixed bolts and screws if anyone had a photo or anything of what the rocker cover and valley pan bolts look like would be awesome. Didn’t think they would be that hard to find but nothing yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, those are the inside windshield pillar moldings. They do not meet the dash pad. The dash pad ends short of the windshield pillars. The space between the dash pad and the windshield pillar is bridged by a plastic filler piece. Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn’t think they would be that hard to find but nothing yet. Your chassis manual has a list of torque specs for every bolt. The TPI is listed but I’m not sure about the lengths. Both sets have a pointed end (for finding blind holes) and a washer type head on them. I’ll see if I can find a couple and post a picture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RivNut Posted August 24, 2022 Share Posted August 24, 2022 When everything is bagged and tagged it doesn’t take long to find anything. 🧐 “Valve rocker arm cover” “Valve lifter cover” (valley cover) torque specs from my 64 chassis manual I didn’t realize it but it appears that the bolts for each application are the same.

Hey Ed maybe the angle of those shots but it looked like rocker cover was longer, but did you say same length? I have the 63 manual for torque however I am just finger tightening to get some bits on the car for transporting again. only found 3 bolts so far and there are others but they don’t have the washer head. Still hunting! Every day is a new discovery but it’s quite an adventure. Spoke with Tom down here today and he sent me the info for riv owners association.

As I said it bridges between the dash pad and the windshield pillar. It curves down and also bridges between the edge of the dashboard and the door windlace. Same grain as the dash pad which is different than the upholstery grain. Bill Edited August 24, 2022 by Riviera63 (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
