Once I had the nose off, I thought I might as well take the hood off to get at some wiring behind the dash. Well the hood is bolted to the fuel tank so that whole business came off in one chunk. While that was all off it was a good time to take the rotted out exhaust manifold off and take the carb off again for a good long soaking. Once that was off it was easy to get at the valve cover so I thought I might as well go ahead and set the valves too. I think it's always goofy working on these sideways motors.
