Re: Lurker OrrieG Progress Pics

New temp gauge is in, same one as the trans temp. Let it idle in the drive, it ran up to t stat temp of 190, then dropped to just below 160 and never moved. I am using a big truck radiator which is 1 inch thicker and 4" deeper, looks like it will be the ticket for towing and crawling along back roads. Need to add some welting at the left seam and column cover hides the exposed plastic/vinyl.
