Yes, got it up to 75. Carbs still need more tuning and playing around with.

Started up on some spring maintenance. Pulled the widefive front beam out. As much as I love how the bus sits, its just a little to low... So Widefive refurbed my stock beam and its going back in. Pulled the lowered beam out this afternoon. After that, the next project is to pull the motor, remove the tin, and retorque the heads and do some carb tuning.

Is re torquing the heads a maintenance thing after an engine rebuild?

Retorquing heads is a myth. There should be no reason to do this unless there is some other problem. Bus looks good on it's side
