Matt I don't know if you knew this but I have cross threaded spark plug holes. So my heads are shot, though rebuilding a set of heads that aren't damaged would be a great learning experience. I don't think we have a club video for that either. You can get the head and the parts separate but its almost the same price to have them fully assembled.

I still have some time to figure out what I'm gonna do.  ;D

I didn't know you had a 1776 do you have that in the Orange bug?
