  1. Get JIS screwdrivers if you don't have them already. The carbs are brass and it's easy to strip the screws.

  2. YouTube Shane Conley. He's an automotive teacher and posts some incredibly informative videos

  3. for the valves, finding the right feeler gauge was a pain. Here's what I landed on.

    Here's the shim kit

    measure the shim before you put it in. You will be doing extra work if you replace a shim only to discover it's the wrong size after install when you're double checking everything.

  4. I've got a post around here from me doing shims, I'll try to find it because there's other good stuff in there.
    Found the link, looks like I got most of it. There's other good stuff though.

  5. drop the radiator before doing shims, it's so much easier.

  6. if you have manual tension adjusters, grab a set of socket extensions and flare nut crows feet

  7. measure and record everything, draw your own pictures and diagrams

  8. telescoping magnet and good lighting because you WILL drop something, somewhere

  9. check float height since you're in there already but you may not need to clean much on the carbs if there's not a power issue. The bowl gaskets do leak sometimes, might as well replace those. Definitely check the float needle.

  10. when cleaning, remember the needles are brass which is soft. Don't abuse them because they're easy to scratch.

    Edit

  11. grab a torque wrench for putting it back together and be very careful not to cross thread, the aluminum in the head is easy to rip out if you over torque or cross thread. Especially the bolts for the valve covers.
