I'm going to be ordering a complete gasket kit for this motor, as well as a new wire harness, coil, points and condenser then I can clean it up for paint. Oh yea, the original big muffler is still in good shape and its QUIET!!!
Excellent! Glad your muffler is in good shape and quiet--that should save you about, uh $410 or so.... I'll be watching for future posts of your progress on it!
