Re: 59 Chevy Build

guess it has been a while since I posted an update...........had to go through 3 pages to find my thread........anyway, I took the truck for it's first maiden ride today and overall I was pleased with the performance. Anytime you build something like this you hear thousands of noises that may or may not be there. I did hear some abnormal noises and brought it back and lifted the front end and found some bolts that were not as tight as they should have been. Also, I figured that since it was up I might as well wire the rotor bolts together just for safety sake. I was happy that it never got above 187 degrees on the temp. I am now waiting for it to cool so I can set the timing.......
