Polish it
Hi I saw a 32 highboy at the grand national roadster show many years ago. It had an aluminum v8 that was polished to a mirror finish, best motor I have ever seen.

relay
Hi,
There should be a fan relay, probably burned/stuck contacts as the fan draws alot of current. Just replace it.

rear brakes
Hi,
you need an inline proportioning valve to the rear brakes and take out 40% pressure to rear brakes as they will lock up sooner than front . Speedway sells them.

Power brakes
Hi,
I gave up with manual brakes. I put power brakes in and it stops and feels like a newer car. If you don't have room for a power booster put a hyroboost unit in.

Well the only difference is the alternator, the rectifier may not be giving a good DC voltage- AC still present?
