Ross,

Good to know. I have had my carbs rebuilt (superbly done by an expert) as well as the water pump and several of the accessories. I have a nasty sounding clang coming from deep inside my engine. I am thinking rods or cam trouble? Only way to find out is to take it all appart. While it is being done, I am going to get a better MSD put in along with engine mounts, valves and some other recommended upgrades from Evan's.

I was surprised it took so long for your build before I realized all that you had done. Part waiting included, 6 months is not bad at all.

Thanks for the info.
