That's what im thinking too save some time!

Thanks catdoctor that helps!

I have a rubber seal in there now don't know what number it is for that seal. I have rope seals as well that are brand new. I know my block is a later number 3781872 but I have the early heads and don't have the holes in the block for the spark plug water ways. I think when we took it apart the...

I just had a question I was given a p2904 rear seal in my fel pro rebuild kit... will this work with my 1958 348 ? Im replacing the rear main since I forgot to put the rubber wings in does not give you clear advice in either one of my shop manuals for the vehicle so after researching I found...
