I replied to him, and I
thought it had gotten to the board. Guess not.

Has anybody given Larry the help he
requested?
I am not familiar with the engine you have, but if
it has "allthread", completely threaded rods, also called
"studs", holding the cover in place, the local auto parts
store should have them. Look in all those little drawers and bins in the
back of the store. That is where I found the studs for the exhaust
manifolds.
good luck

Help
Over
the weekend, my son was removing the bolts that holds the valve covers
on the Coronet's engine. It's a 1957 Coronet, 325 engine, and of
course, the top of the stud broke off. It looks like the stud has
threads on both ends, with the one end going into one of the rocker
arms? Do these just screw into the rockers (vice grips?) or are we
talking major disassembly here ($$$?). And where would one
get a replacement with the proper threads and hardness?
As
always, appreciate your assistance and advice.
LARRY (In cold,
very snowy Akron, Ohio. Where's Spring?)
