I'm looking forward to reading that! I was building my own engines for my hot rod cars back when I was 18, I've done lots of things wrong and some right, it's all a learning process that's kept me...

I'll add a bit of info I read about intake spacer length. Says a lower geared quick revving motor does better with a shorter carb to head spacer length. The Hawk, mine at least, was geared far too...

Even a 10% power increase on one of these engines wouldn't be all that noticeable. The temperatures have been swinging wildly here lately, that doesn't help matters when trying to get a "seat of the...

I raised the needle jet and changed the main jet while doing this. I think I made it slightly worse or the same, hard to tell. I doubt removing that slag will make a noticeable difference, maybe just...

I do have some copper spray, hope it's still good. I could spray some directly on the head surface then put it back together.
