Excellent, thanks. From the 7 gazillion posts I have read on all manner of forums, I thought it would work. Hopefully we will have it together at the end of the week. I read somewhere it might be possable to swap the whole rearend with leaf springs from the 57 truck over to my 53 and avoid having to weld new spring perches on ? IF you can do this , will it center the rearend in the wheelwell corectly? I have ordered a plate for the water pump, hopefully all will line up with the 2 groove pully on the crank and teh alternator kit. thanks for the tips,
Hans
