Default Re: Electrical woes

Thank you gentlemen. As my brother preaches to me, “electricity is like water...just follow it down hill.” I traced it all from the start and now I think that part is ok.
Patrick, you asked what I’ve done since she ran right. It all started with a blown head gasket. From there:
Head resurfaced
New timing gear
Replaced old valve with modern and ground them in
New manifolds (because the old ones were in poor shape and had the heater fins)
Changed valve cover to one with oil filter
She runs now, but rough. The timing is dead on, so I’m questioning that I may have one of the new valves hanging up. I can kind of hear a light grating in #4 and that’s where she stumbles. How can I tell? Compression is 60lbs in all cylinders.
