If the engine runs well, I'll consider investing in a new set of valve covers. For now, I want to get it igniting/combusting as cheaply as possible.
What ever you do do not use or add fuel to the gas tank/lines. It will need a good cleaning out. Otherwise the fuel will cause the intake valve to stick resulting in no compression and bent push rods. Use an external can to feed the fuel pump while trying to get the engine to run.
