It runs pretty good but needs a better battery (this one wont crank when it gets cold) I am some what mechanically inclined i can change oil plugs and wires and basics and turn a wrench. But not like these guys on here can remove the engine to spruce it up so thats why i was saying easy. If i were to put on new value covers would i need to mess with gaskets or anything or just move the plug wires and take the covers off? Ill try and get some pics of the very dirty engine. Thanks i know that was a lot
