    315 in the back(tires)

    Ticking Noise!!

    Electric Fan

    the flex a lite 185 fan comes with a temp sensorer that goes through the radiator with a probe, you hook up all the wires with the included detailed instructions, and set the fan, it comes on automatically once it reaches the set temperature.

    What Do You Think About Auto Meter Gauges

    If you go to florida50.com you can order a panel or a panel with the gauges set up in it. the one with the gauges is already wired up, with connectors, so all you would need to do is get out the repair manual and make sure you hook the wires up right.
