    Hello,
    I have heard that you can't get new bolts for fixing the cylinder head on the 235 cui engine block. My truck is a Chevy 3600 build 1953. Is that information right? What do you do when a bolt has cracked? Do you have a source were you can buy another bolts for fixing the cylinder head?
    If you can give me help, it will be friendly:D

    Shipping would be cheaper from brit50 in England but I also have several sets. Just pay the shipping. If you can get non-metric bolts then a grade 8 bolt with 1/2-13 threads would do the trick. These old cast iron brutes are very forgiving.
