    beautifull engine… do change your plug wires with metallic core ones  . you can reuse the boots if ok  the impeller is tricky has stated but not difficult

    I have  used  Belden metallic automotive wires  with boots ..but 4  feet is cheaper

    capacitors  likely needs replacement see great articles from MR Mohat
