Hi Rob
Yep, we're making headway. I just got a full set of gaskets for the UC 2 days ago along with a dizzy adapter plate, wires, 2 dizzy caps, point set and coil. I'm in the process right now of removing the carb and fuel pump. I took the heads off and cleaned the valves, piston tops etc. There was a ton of carbon there and looked like they'd never been cleaned. Messy work. Once the heads were off I sandblasted the outer side of them to clean up years and years of bad paint jobs and then I powder coated them gloss black. Purists of course will tell me that the original look is different but we're not spending any extra $$ on this job unless absolutely necessary. This carrier doesn't belong to us but the local legion. Anyway, I have to pull the intake manifold and clean what's beneath it. I suspect a lot of really gunked up springs and valves. I'm going to do the carb with a new carb kit and am contemplating getting a new fuel pump, the electric kind. Sooo, I guess you could say we've been busy! Cameron
