Eddie My book shows '58 Fury with 318 same piston part # as '57 Fury. #1818 597. They are listed in seperate columns bur same #. The crank we agree on. Numbers that I posted earlier. The rods 56-57 Fury #1732 853 Also listed 56-58 LP2, LP2 Fury w318 #1618 697, FOOTNOTE 1 P29 from engine #1001-40000 &80001 - 250000 and after P29-274101. Since a '57 is after the P29 wich rod does it take????????
