4BC HEAT VALVE/GATE CONTROL PIECES
Anyone out there with factory heat gate still in operation.
Im trying to match/replace a few missing bits. The parts in red are what Im looking to find better details on. If you can provide better images and/or specs to these and/or suitable replacements I would love to hear from you. Thx

I'm looking for details on the Retaining/anti rattle clip #60 and the Spacer #46.
The Shield/Cover is unique and first I've come across in years. What I'm not 100% sure is if this was across the board on ALL 4BC manifold or certain years. I purchased a thermal spring that was listed as all Pontiac but it was/is way to large so even the spring is different. Looking on a Willys 6cyl parts site and going to try one of their offerings on springs.

Jeff search the Cammer website. I bought the anti rattle spring and coil from a 1950’s Chevy website, worked well. The cover is a different story.

Thanks,
I've seen the Chebby 6 as well as the Willys 6 I mentioned, just need to figure out it they will fit under/into the cover/shield. Guess I'll buy a few and see how it works out. Re-Creating the Spacer shouldn't be that hard the Anti-Rattle Spring offerings are close enough to get this back in order. I lucked out on the '66 with an NOS spring years ago but that will likely not happen again.

WILLYS L HEAD COIL
Picked up the Willys spring and though it fits within the shield/cover it has more coil so I'll mock it up and test to see how it reacts.

Update;
Well still tinkering and found the Willy's spring just wouldn't fit/function so I moved over to the suggested Chevy 6 spring.
It fits within the cover/shield nicely but had to roll the end over the pin/shaft to prevent it from walking. Overall tested and works well. Might try one more style/model spring just for giggles. Disregard the zip tie it's just so I don't loose any thing while I search for a retaining/anti rattle spring clip.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
