Stop in for a cup of coffee

Changed the metering rod springs in this carb and man what a difference... idles way smoother, not melting my eyes out and pulls 13 inches now instead of 8-10... Also pull the the drivers header loose to replace the gasket.. I got those thick aluminum Percy gaskets...

Had to pull the valve cover for that which is ok, i have been hearing lifter noise and they all feel fine but i haven't turned the motor to really check em yet.. think i'm gonna get a compression tester and check that at the same time since i don't know anything bout this motor...
Sounds like it's getting dialed in good.
