Thank you Mark. I'll make up a list tonight! And an advance/retard lever off the distributor body linked to a quadrent on the coulmn? Can't be any harder to make up than the string operated, spring loaded remote chinacarb knocker I installed in the foyota for when the float needle sticks.
Long day in the woodshop, not much progress enginewise. My hope is finish off these cabinet doors on Thursday and have a 3 day weekend of engine assembly. I did, however tell my son I'd help him replace the lower unit on his outboard over the weekend. I counted 8 bolts. That couldn't take long....
