That’s what I thought, but both my blocks seem to be C59A/59A. Maybe Canadian made blocks were different than those made in the USA?

The nut on front of the crank pulley was bent with all the tangs passing the hex, so had to cut them off. Not sure of the hex size, but can’t find any sockets to fit. Think it is 1 3/16”. I must have one somewhere as I have a new nut on my other flathead.

I’m going to see if both thermostats still work. Lol!
