Although the 516's can be made to work, they'll never work as well as a set of eddies or even 452/906 iron heads. You might want to find an old Street dominator intake also, they work real nice along with a 750 carb. (I really liked my old 750 AFB on my first 440 in the truck) Try a set of 1-3/4" headers if you're running a low stall convertor, they'll give you better lowend grunt. One nice thing about that 58' there's a ton of rooom under the hood. A set of B body headers will fit with a couple little adjustments to the frame. My 528 Hemi with a tunnelram fits real nice under the hood of my 60'. Dave

Thanks for all the good advice, I think I will talk him into the eddy heads. It's a fun truck for him, he doesn't want too radical and the 413 is just for the unique value. We are running a four link, independant front and four wheel discs, so it should run and handle well. I really dig that '60 Dodge, very nice! My toy is a '68 Barracuda 10:6:1 stroker (.060 over 360, 420 cubes) with eddy heads, intake, holley 750 and a hughes .560 lift cam, 3,000 stall and 3.91 gears. Dad doesn't want such a radical ride after driving mine!
