Re: 53 ford

Why couldn't you use the original sender and then find a bushing to reduce the pipe thread or vise versa into the manifold?

Re: 53 ford

Your '53 temp gauge should read right with the '76 sender if you convert your '53 gauge cluster to 12V by using the Ford CVR from the back of a 60's or 70's gauge cluster. ..B.
