76a is pretty simple as shim adjusted.
Cutting corners on the strp down cost you time so-
Tank, panels, rad, thermostate housing, coils and water pipes removed (excuse to clean).
cover off and take clearance readings.
Allow a couple of days so you can get any shims you need but if you swap them around you usualy only need a few.
You remove the plug from the R/H engine cover to allow the motor to be turned over.

Nice one . Any order to check them in? At what point do I check each? If needed where can I get shims ?
Thanks in advance
