  1. Yea 3 and 4 were covered in gas, carb is tight, looks clean nothing is loose, has 32/36 web, all stock, all had low compression, plugs 1-2 were dry, all were replaced a few months ago, it does have high mileage, but before this it ran good, good compression, msd ignition
  2. I was driving my 75, and all of a sudden it started sputtering and running really rough, lost all power, got back to my shop and pulled spark plugs, back 2 were wet had fuel all over them, had really low compression, what would cause this? Blown head? Has this happened to any one? I haven’t torn into the motor yet.
  3. Let me rephrase that, 3-4 months lol hahaha
  4. True! I guess it also gives me the chance to work on it and learn the engine, plus add a couple Extra upgrades, gives me something to do for a month or 2,
  5. Well I’m going to pull it anyways to do a 5spd, new clutch, put on the exhaust manifold I have, so might as well just give her a rebuild while it’s out, fix the leaks(no more burning oil smell in the cab) lol I was thinking just a 284 cam new pistons with my 32-36 Webber should be plenty plus 5 spd, ... its doesn’t really smoke that bad, maybe down shifting hard it might but other than that

  8. Hi everyone! I am looking to rebuild my engine, I have a stock engine with 32-36 Webber and a tii exhaust manifold, what are some mostly stock rebuild mods, I am going to get new pistons, new cam, I do not mind having a mostly stock build, what recommendations for a cam, piston..... any ideas much appreciated! Engine has about 250k-300 since last rebuild! Engine still runs great! I am going to pull it out and do all the seals, so might as well give her a face lift! Plus 5spd!!
