Is there anyone who puts together a kit of what you need or do you have to source them individually?

    I had a freeze plug rust out in my'96 Olds - garage installed a universal type that is tightened in place with a wrench. If that's any help.

    Dale Cooper does not have a set--he's thought about it but not done it!

    I went to Napa with the old one, and they matched me up a set.

    I got some from Dorman for my 254 head. They list many sizes.

    Can someone list the sizes (maybe part numbers from purchasing experience) for the various plugs used on the 232, 262, 254 and 308 engine?

    FYI
    Hope this helps out...
    A few Yrs ago I spotted Soft Plug Kits in the White Triangle then bought a few Sets. The Set came with a full page of helpful proper Installation Tips which I kept. I went into my Shop to retrieve the Page but there's no name or contact info on the Page..... Too bad because it was a nice deal and It saved the hassel of finding all the sizes..l Dont know if that person still advertises or not.... If not, perhaps someone could put together another Kit and Market it if I provide the sizes...

    Thanks Ken!
  • Dale Cooper has the entire set of freeze plugs including the cam plugs for $25 dollars for the set.  That's sort of hard to beat.

    For those who are interested - download a copy of the CLEVITE catalog listing the freeze plugs and interchanges....
