    It's not a new engine. I'm just going through a rocker adjustment because it sounds a bit louder than I would like, and I haven't done it for a while.

    Taking the engine is out of the question. I would have to disassemble the entire front end, grill shell, radiator and a boatload of other parts.

    As it is, because of the narrowed frame, low stance and other 'stuff' in the way, I had to remove the A/C compressor and bracket and the master cylinder just to get the valve covers off.

    And no, I had no other place to put those accessories.

    This project was a case of putting five pounds of 'stuff' in a four-pound bag.


    Maybe this photo will answer your question.
