Your right I think it ruined the truck. I think it would have brought 52k if I took it off. Where were you last month?

Re: 56 Engine transformation 2

I have to agree with Wrenchbender. That flexible hose looked a little out of place against the quality of the rest of the truck.

Yea, I love the old Oil Baths, that one looks identical to the one in my '56 caddy, my caddies air cleaner STILL has oil in it from when it was parked in a barn in '77

Re: 56 Engine transformation 2

What headers did you use????I have a 51 AD truck - used the same cross member-late model six for now-might want to upgrade later to a SBC. I noticed you kept the stock front Axle -cool- Oh Very NICE Truck.
