Any time – Have not fired
her up for a couple weeks while working on the floor-pan replacement. And
having the battery disconnected while welding in the new sheet metal. Have
about a dozen spot welds left and a couple screw holes under the rear seat to
weld up tonight. Ran out of MIG wire on the weekend. Then it’s time
to fire her up – been too long since we last heard the Poly rumble and tapping
music.... ; )

The “top end” is the

“solid” rocker arm has the threaded hole with adjuster installed; the hyd.
rocker arm is cast with a ball on the pushrod end and no threaded hole to
adjust travel of the ball.

Gary,
Would you happen to
have a photo or drawing of the hydraulic poly top end setup? I'm guessing it's
basically an LA rocker arm setup on adjustable poly rocker
shafts?

The heads with
adjustable rocker arms are used with solid lifter cam Poly engines and the
non-adjustable heads are factory head for the Hydraulic Poly Cam
engines. Most, if not all, of the “heavy duty” truck models (ie your
W500) came with Hyd. cams and non-adjustable rocker heads.
Many of the Canadian
Poly psgr. car engines and trucks came with non-adjustable rocker assemblies
and Hyd. camshafts from the factory; ie like the Canadian 1967 Plymouth VIP
of Kevin Merkley. And here we have another twist in that 318 Poly psgr.
car engines were limited to the 1966 model year in the U.S. (with some 1967
heavy duty trucks and TRAVCO motor homes still built with Polys in the U.S.
just to confuse some parts people and unsuspecting Poly owners) but
continued through the 1967 model year in Canada.
The first and only
318 Poly passenger car to receive a Hyd. Camshaft and non-adjustable rocker
gear was the 1959 Dodge...which was an overbored 318 Plymouth Poly topping
out at 326 cubic inches. All following model year Dodges were installed with
the standard 318 throughout the Poly production run.
It is always good to
use the adjustable rocker assembly with Poly Hyd. cam motors (ease of
maintenance & ability to set proper lifter pre-load...) and mandatory of
course with solid lifter motors.
No such animal as
adjustable pushrod Poly engines.

Poly Valve Train Question
Hello!
New
poster, longtime lurker. I am from the Power Wagon side of things, I
have 3 trucks, a 1956 flatfender, a 1961 2 ton (W500), and a 1964
W200. I am working on assembling a 318 Poly for the W500. The
engine that I have came with two sets of heads: one had adjustable rocker
arms, the other doesn't. I have heard a lot of explanations for this,
including adjustable push rods, and the rare long lost Canadian hydraulic
lifter model of the 318 Poly. My intention is to reassemble with the
adjustable rocker arms, but can anybody tell me where these non-adjustable
rocker arms came from?
Thanks!
