Thanks for the compliments, not much to brag about, when I get it as nice as most of the rides on this forum, then I may have some bragging rights!
Shouldn't be any reason for shorts, if there is I have some pretty crummy plug wires. In the older days on equipment many manufacturers ran the plug wires through metal shielding and the wires back then were not as good as todays but the voltage wasn't as high either. You can actually buy a custom style plug wire holder setup made of aluminum that bolts to the rocker cover bolts, they are pretty fancy but expensive. The number 5-7-6 were the only ones I had to do this with. Got the others all installed today, hope to fire it up within a week or so. As you can see in the pictures, it needs a good cleaning!
