    Engine has not been run yet since disassembled, but getting close.
    Just got the points set, flywheel on, etc., and have great spark.
    Had to quit to come in and look up what 480 inch pounds was
    to torque the flywheel….. should have guessed, divide by 12, = 40 foot pounds!
    Notice on the diagrams that there’s no washer shown under the flywheel nut…
    really?

    Prepare to be boarded!
