    Someone will correct me if im wrong but I think it would have to be a ’59 – ’63. ’59 is the first year with a thermostat and I believe you have to use a thermostat powerhead on a thermostat exhaust housing. They started using needle bearing on the wristpins in ’61 so that may be something to keep in mind when Looking for one. How bad is it stuck? I’d try to free it up if it were mine. Once it’s free see if it is worth anything or still needs replacement or a rebuild.
