Haha...I'm happy.

I just finished lapping my heads, and I have compression! I went from 30 psi up to 120 psi just from lapping. I thought I would have to put a ton of money into the heads. I see the numbers 882 and the number 5 on the head. Does this tell at all what size the heads are(64cc, 72cc, etc.)?

I also have an older Performer intake with the large ports and a new Edelbrock 600 cfm electric choke carb. How does this electric choke hook up? Right now I have a heat riser style choke. Is it just any keyed 12 volt power source?

Thanks,
Scott

Dunno about the heads, but congrats on getting the problem solved!

10-4 on the 12V for the electric choke, just make sure it's hot with ignition only, not accessory.
