The smaller one was stock 5/16 base rocker stud. The rocker stud base on #1 exhaust was stripped out and rocking back and forth. A few others were coming undone too. The bases are torqued to 25lbs but are no match for power or engine or the springs or lift of cam or something? The larger one goes deeper into head and is thicker 7/16 base. Going on Aluminum heads.

As you can see there are TWO three groove water pump pulleys available from OPGI. The one on second row is wrong part number and looks exactly like one I had originally. The one on top row looks more like what I need. It has a shorter Top. Weirdly they do not like a GM part number. I ordered that one. When it came it did NOT look like what I ordered and instead looks like the one on second row. Ok. Now compare to this...

This is from another Olds part place. Looks like the OPGI one above. has the right part number. Same place also sells the OTHER one that is wrong. I THINK that OPGI may have labeled the part wrong. There is no Stamp on it saying what it actually is. I am calling them as soon as they open to do a visual inventory to see if the two Three groove parts they sell are

They only have two 3 groove listed. The second row one is wrong. I ordered top one with no GM part number listed. What came did not match photo. I weirdly they do say the part number for third row one but not top row one. What came was the third row one. I think they miss labeled the parts?. There is NO stamp on it to confirm what K number it actually is but clearly it is wrong

Stripped off hardware and Painted the console SEM black and clear coat. Added all new everything minus chrome trim bead. I am not sure but may go back to have it polished.
