That motor was disgusting!

Did you rebuild it or just chase the rats away and clean it up?
The motor was cleaned up & reinstalled. It was then realized that I needed to rering the pistons, then reinstalled. Then it was realized that the jugs were to far worn, pulled it back out.... installed 88mm slip ins and havn't looked back. I havn't done any head work or even split the case. And yes the motor was WAY NASTY! I used 6 cans of comercial strength oven cleaner to clean it up. The carbs have been rebuilt and rebushed, i wish I didn't do it to tell ya the truth. I only did it for cosmetic reasons and now they suck vacume at all the possible points. I need new carbs. I then replaced all the ignition parts with new Bosch and installed a new 050 SVDA Distributor. The Distributor would work better if the carbs produced more vacume. Basically its timing like a Uh oh nine.
