Default Re: Production years for G and H 6 cly flatheads?

I had a very difficult time finding a usable camshaft for an H engine. The problem was broken teeth where it drives the distributor.

Default Re: Production years for G and H 6 cly flatheads?

I just went down and looked at a beat-up 1/2 panel I dragged home a few years back. It has a G six and it's mounts also are in the same holes a V8 goes into. This would suggest that the G and H are directly interchangeable with each other and the V8. I wonder what the forward holes are for in so many jailbar frames?
