got a NEW to me interesting serious problem that just showed
up..

Nice gentleman sent me a 'new' ignition lock, with 2 Stude LOGO
keys fitted to it, included was his door locks to be keyed
alike..

someone, somewhere has decided to use the Y133 key way, which is
fine, BUT cut the space/depth on them to the older Dodge/Chrysler
codes.. the keys had a tag listing the code on it as an EPxxxx
code, which means the shoulder to cut spacing is far off from
what Stude uses..

am trying to come up with an idea how to breed this so its OK,
but so far its not looking good for long term reliability.

Just sell him another ignition lock and make everything match would be
my guess.  he probably used a MoPar lock cylinder and had the keys
copied onto the Stude blanks.

well, its a STUDEBAKER key, which will not go into anything but
the Y 133.. the Chrysler uses a different shape of the key
body-they are not interchangeable.. what they did was not use the
S codes that Stude used, but  the EP codes of Chrysler..

really... are these the new reproduction locks?  I knew the stuff was
all interchangeable (having actually owned both, and replaced locks on
both) but I never had the locks/keys from both flavors of vehicle
together at the same time for comparison.

its a DIFFERENT key way..  however in this case they are using
the spacing from the Chrysler on the stude keys..
which is different horizontally on the Y133 key codes..

Yup - it's the SI repro. How about if I send you a Stude ignition insert?

we got a problem, just so you know.. the keys you GOT,  may not
be able to be used.. I might be able to make this work and keep
the logo keys, just depends..am gonna try tho.. but would sure
save the door cylinders.
