Well I found Napa's first weak link. I pushed out a head gasket on #7, 2 more cylinders weren't to far behind. Plugs looked great, pistons, cylinders, and heads look like a freshly broke in motor. I set the carb up to be almost dead rich to be on the safe side untill I got a handle on things. The head gaskets were the cheap Victors you see in the economy rebuild sets.
Can anyone recomend a GOOD set of head gaskets, I'd like a set that are .050 compressed. Dave




For a .050 and one thats gonna live you might want Cometics





I was afraid you'd say that Mike, they cost more than the motor did but I know you're right.
Jamie; I bandaided it for now, this winter I'll get it on a chassis plate and try and do it justice.
Rick; I'm planing on being at Top End when you guys come down. Still don't know if I'll try a pass the way it is, I don't know if the tech guy would even give the nod.Dave
