Great info, thank you!

I will order the seal kit and add that job to my list.

My dad also had a new valve body and shaft on his parts shelf, so I have that too.

From what I could see, everything looked/moved extremely well as if it had been reworked around the time he rebuilt the engine. As we all know, looks are deceiving. Gotta get into the internals for the real story....

I'm really impressed how well the engine runs with an "ear tune" on timing and base carb tune after the rochester rebuild. Keeps motivation levels high to complete this project for him!
