Chevrolet Inline Six-Cylinder Power Manual

    This page will offer speed equipment from the major manufacturers of the “classic” period of American V8 performance: 1955-64. All of these parts are used, were originally made sometime in this era, conditions are honestly described as accurately as possible. These parts are perfect for vintage racing or street rods where the appearance of the motor is an essential element of “character”.
    Chevy small blocks are nice for taxis, but why use a generic crate motor in your street rod, when a traditional motor such as DeSoto hemi, Olds Rocket, Buick nail-head or Chevy 409 is still available at reasonable cost, powerful, reliable, attractive.... and different. Plan your project around a vintage motor, and get some real head-turning power!

Dodge Hemi Heads
    This is an old set from a 241” (1953-54) motor, and are rusty, valves are stuck in the guides, etc. but has no known damage, stripped threads, cracks, etc. These heads fit the 241” Dodge hemi motors and possibly the later 270, 315 & 325” Dodge hemi motors. Head are as shown - no rockers, etc. These heads can be used to convert the 1955-56 241 & 259” DeSoto, Dodge, or Plymouth “poly” (polyspheric) type motors to hemi (you'll also need rocker arms, stands, pushrods, pistons and other small parts but your intake manifold, distributor etc. are OK). They may also fit the 1956-58 270, 315 & 325” DeSoto or Dodge poly motors. Casting number is 1328362-2.
    These heads will not fit and cannot be adapted to any other Chrysler, DeSoto, Dodge or Plymouth poly or hemi motors, not the B, RB, LA, 318, etc. I don't have any other hemi parts. These heads MUST be picked up in Hempstead Long Island, NY. No, I will not deliver or crate. Please: no questions about condition, etc.; read the information above, that's all I know. Price: SOLD as-is, where is. Click any picture for a larger view, the last one shows part of the casting number.
