Re: My 58 build
Added new gauges and cup holders. Haven't time to drive it a lot with the new engine, but what I have done it runs great with lots of power.

Re: My 58 build
Changed radiator to an aluminum(no more minor leaks) and went with 16 inch electric fan. Made shroud for it and good to go!. Still ran hotter than I wanted, 195-205 switched to a 160 degree stat and same temp. I used an infrared thermometer and found my SW electric gauge was off! Changed to a mechanical and now runs 160 all the time!

Re: My 58 build
Hey Nordic; I noticed your shock location, you might have to relocate both mounts to behind the axle if you have steering shaft interference. If I remember right the lower mount is either moved to the back side of the axle, upside down, or switched from the other side, I forget. The upper mount needs to move as well and uses 2 existing bolts holes. This will put the shock at a better angle thus better operation...
