Okay, a while back I had the #2 exhaust rocker back off while breaking in the engine.
I fixed that, and rebuilt the carbs. Tonight I reset the valve gap and, ran it for the first time. It runs, but I heard a noise I did not like. There is a leak somewhere on the 1/2 head bank. Watch this video I made. it is me cranking the engine on my test stand. No fuel or spark, only cranking. The spark plugs are in to force compression. You can hear a "fffffffft, fffffffft, ffffffffft" sound, that I don't think is supposed to be there. Link to the video on Flickr Zach |

why are you doing this with the tranny in gear? I remember it was a bitch to do anything on my engine one day. it didnt want to play nice, and the whole car shook (it was half on jackstands) and couldnt figure out why it wasnt starting. turns out i had it in gear. also, i dont hear a leak in your video, just an engine cranking...SLOW mayhaps take it out of gear for that too?
