Budget Build 5.9 for a 71 Scamp

a little light reading on the morning commute to work today ... This is the portion of my subway ride where the train is elevated above the streets, with cars driving underneath. Once I cross the Williamsburg Bridge into Manhattan, the train goes underground.

This book tells you to check the cam centerline before you tear the engine apart completely. I hope I don't really need to do that?

If you are using the same pieces over from an unknown running engine, it's good to know where things were installed as a reference.

If you didn't, not the end of the world. Changing it out, not a concern.
