Finally

Back in Oct, I found water shooting up through #4 spark plug hole. Got around to pulling the head in January and discovered holes in the #4 combustion chamber. Bought a rusted engine for $130 and pulled the head off and dropped it off at a friends shop in March. Started cleaning and adjusting valves and doing other misc jobs until April. Discovered shop had misplaced head. Found it 2 weeks ago and re-installed it along with all the other stuff and after some B,S and T it finally started and ran. Here's some misc pix that might be helpful to someone. Thanks to all for their help.

PS-- getting some leakage out of one plug (thread was a little messed up from a frozen plug). Any suggestions other than re-tapping?Name:  123_2315.JPG
