    Determining what lift size I have.

    It rides like a brick and I want to swap on the 56" springs while leveling it out at the same time.

    Mine has 5 leafs, so I'm wondering if it had a leaf or two added for lift, which can further complicate things.

    It would still push it away upon the exhaust stroke? Either way, I realized what I did wrong: I had the cap out of rotation by about a quarter of a turn, I adjusted it and re routes all the plug wires, I haven't tried to start it in two days, but now I'm semi afraid I may have damaged the...

    I did have to fool around with the oil pump, I bought a reply long flat head for that, it wasn't as bad as I had thought.
