I'm putting a cylinder head from a '54 235 on my '59 261 and i was wondering if anyone could tell me if the pushrods for the 261 will work when i bolt on the 235 head? Thanks Ian

Ian,

My guess would be "yes", if you are using the lifters, push rods, and rocker arm assembly all from the 1959 engine.

Are you drilling the extra coolant holes into the 1954 235 head (just checking)?

I agree with Tim. My 261 is a '58 and the head is off a 235. Pushrods (bought new) worked fine. Definitely drill for the coolant holes!
