But bargains don't last long on marketplace , so if someone needs this , they might want to move quickly. Last edited by tubtar; 11/27/19 03:12 PM.

I cannot believe I missed that, But I did. No one to blame but myself. It is together with all brand new name brand stuff. A big shout out to Scott Smith for the awesome clone carburetors! Thank you! ,Paul

There was about 2 fluid oz's of iron swarf stuck in the main lifter galleys. Problem was revealed on a pre-oil check, no oil to the rocker arms. Whoever was running the gun drill must not have had the oil pressure turned up high enough. Not an excuse, just my theory. I can't believe I was so stupid to miss that. I could have sworn that I shone a flashlight down each passage, apparently NOT. oh well, all is good now. Paul
