Heads # 1832159 and Intake # 155473

Heads # 1832159 and Intake # 155473

Anyone know what these might be from? It sounds like the intake is dated 10/29/54.
That's the casting I was given from the intake, I'm asking if there was a missed # that
would complete the intake casting to 7 digits.

Re: 51-53 Chrysler 331 starters. Interchange?

My understanding is this...

'51 to '55 use 6V starter (146 tooth flywheel)
'56 uses 12V starter (also 146 tooth flywheel)
'57 to '58 use 12V starter (172 tooth flywheel)

I don't think extended or non-extended changes anything.
I recommend a mini high-torque starter from Hot Heads.
