360 Magnum freeze plugs and Mods.

[moparspares]

I was sold mopar P5249706 freeze plug set for 360 magnum however I think maybe it is incorrect after installing most of them.

I have left over 1 x 1 5/8 - 1 1/4 - 1 7/8 disc type and a 5/8 threaded plug (yes I have installed the plug in distributor pocket). I have missing the 2 cylinder block drains and the small plug for the block just above where the the oil pump bolts on.

Could the left over ones be spares in case you might bugger them up installing.

Also I have read about this oil mod. Drilling one of the Oil Galley plugs with a 1/64 drill so oil squirts on the fuel pump eccentric. Has onyone done this mod and which plug did you drill. Left or Right from front of engine?

Attached pics shows which ones I have left and the actual kit I received

I had to order 2-3 different sets if freeze plugs for my Magnum to cover everything. It was such a pain. I have a bunch leftover of course.

Thanks for the link and I never new about this one. The mod I am talking about though is a hole in one of the front oil galley plugs to oil the fuel pump shaft eccentric. The timing chain tensioner thrust plate needs to be drilled also to allow the oil to pass though to the eccentric.

FYI this looks to be the correct kit
