Like I say, my engine is a'57 so I don't really know what will work. Being as the motor is a '57 and the truck is a '51 will I have to cobble something up? I'm sure there's hundreds of this same combination out there. The hardest thing to find is the rod that goes from the gas pedel to the bellcrank, probably because the bellcrank might be in a little different position on a '57 than on a '51(216). What do you think?
