sandblaster:
Looks good.
The only problem I see is there is no negative pressure gauge or am I missing it?

Pmcg:
No you're not missing it. I am going to switch the Schafer valve out for a barb and use a mighty vac for the negative.  I wanted to go through the spark plug hole like you did but it seemed a ton more difficult.

Pmcg:
So the motor would not even come close to  holding vacuum.   Looks like I'm ordering a new kips center valve

Pmcg:
I obviously had to put my head on with the head gasket to pressure test the motor and now since I have to redo the kips valve I had to take the head back off. Did I wreck the gasket?  Are they reusable?  It's a cometic metal gasket. Thanks.
