Mart, after further scrutiny of number 6 with 1 at TDC, i think both valves are closed. if any valve is off the seat, I cant really see it. Rocking the crank back and forth opens and closes both valves in opposition.

Brian, I've had the heads off this thing three times. In the past I have never had to do that even once. It would be my very last ditch effort to do it again. Can the cam be degreed without removing the heads?
