Well, sadly this one might be over sooner than I expected. I was able to the entire motor disassembled down to the the crankcase and heads with the pistons stuck in place. While cleaning it out and filling the water jackets with solvent I noticed the solvent coming out of the exhaust port. After cleaning it off and blowing in the water jacket I found the air coming out the exhaust port as well which leads me to believe there is a crack or hole inside the head. I am letting the it set now in a solvent bath to see if the heads will come off eventually but it is looking more and more like this is going to end up a parts motor unfortunately. Pretty bummed about this one. I was really looking forward to seeing it run again. It appears that the original owner had a fuel problem with the lower carburetor, took it off and let it sit. Time got the best of this one.
