Dorsai Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 I thought Deliverance was set in GA? We've gotten a little better since then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grumpin Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 I thought Deliverance was set in GA? We've gotten a little better since then. Gary, wanted to follow up on the temp gauge I installed with the adapter for both the gauge and stock sender. Got a quick chance today to hit it with the thermometer gun. Stock gauge was at the “L” in NORMAL. Equus gauge read 190° and the thermostat neck was 192° midway and up to the hose. The base of the neck was 200-203°. I plan to do some more research when time permits. Seems close so far! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess we can put Gary's fretting to rest. Brass is a lot more thermally conductive than cast iron. It's nice to have an actual number. Do they sell those in world units?

salans7 Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 You're good people David! I don't care what Matthew says about you..... My 80-82 mirrors showed up yesterday. These mirrors really make a difference for me because they date the truck to 1980-1982 (even if it's not) which is necessary to satisfy my OCD since I want the truck to resemble a 1980. The best part is that they have intact glass, which my F150's mirrors did not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArdWrknTrk Posted July 14, 2019 Share Posted July 14, 2019 The little touches always seem to make the biggest difference. Heck, I said that about the color of Gary's brake pads last week. This is not a LITTLE touch! It really makes your truck stand out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
