258

Year 258 (CCLVIII) was a common year starting on Friday of the Julian calendar. At the time, it was known as the Year of the Consulship of Tuscus and Bassus (or, less frequently, year 1011 Ab urbe condita). The denomination 258 for this year has been used since the early medieval period, when the Anno Domini calendar era became the prevalent method in Europe for naming years.

    Engine 258 7/16 or 1/2 head bolts by wrench size

    I'm looking for a 1/2 head bolt 258 block. Is there any definitive way to tell without pulling a bolt? Is the wrench size (not thread size) different on the head bolts. I know a 7/16 should be 11/16" or 5/8" and 1/2 should be 3/4 in the rest of the bolt world. I'm just looking for a quick...

    Engine 85 CJ7, 258, Carb replacement

    New to me 85 CJ7 258 I6. Don't know much about the history. Seems like everything on it has been modified or messed with in some fashion. Couldn't get it to idle without having the choke all the way out, even then it was rough. After looking at it I realized most of the vacuum lines had been...
