Can anyone tell me what this thing is?
I'm currently starting a 250 rebuild maybe boost ��but for the life of me
I can't tell what this is. I'm prepared for the shaming. Screw like object below valve spring. Last edited by Caffeinephreak; 05-24-2017 at 06:22 PM. Reason: Didnt clarify what I was asking for |

Looks like a cylinder head to me. What specifically are you referring to?

Oldsmobile?
AIR injection ports for secondary air.

Re: Can anyone tell me what this thing is?
Looks like Bigdav160 got it. If there is one plug at each exhaust port, they are in the position where the Air Injection Reactor pumped air into the exhaust to help with more complete burning of the exhaust when the choke was engaged. Once the truck warms up enough, the thermal vacuum switch opens and the system freewheels.
That system began to be used in '66 on many vehicles.
