Wow guys, thanks for the quick plethora of ideas.
One vote for the valves might be to tight. I static adjusted these, 5/8's
turn. After pumping up they ran quietly so I didn't think much of it.
I'll try and find time this afternoon to adjust running.
Had a couple of votes for the coil. BTW, the coil is mounted on the brace
attached to back of the cove.
One vote for the engine is just slap worn out - forgot to add this to the
spec list. When I first cranked this 64 for the 1st 50-75 miles, I was
getting oil out the dipstick. I took an old oil cap (not my powdercoated),
drilled a hole thru it and installed a tube to a bottle. Since then, no oil
in the bottle and very little out the dipstick. Seems the blowby has
stopped. I don't get oil out the dipstick now.
I even had an offer to borrow a known working set of autocross carbs,
complete with cross shaft!
