Quick valve lash questions...

I have my original bolt together carter from '62 but i don't think it would be a good idea to run.
With a 62 year old fuel pump running might be one thing that it won't help with.

My Carter pump came from rock auto, I don't remember it being expensive. But OTOH, when you're spending like a drunken sailor anyway, you tend to push all that out of your mind.
