I talked to the mechanic and it was the intake valve. It’s not missing now, timing was set and points readjusted.
He said my timing was too retarded too so adjusted that.
I’m hoping the compression number was off and improves still but it’s a lot better than it could have been.
If it runs good I’m leaving well enough alone but should I be adding lead to the fuel since those 16 heads are original?
