Hi Roscoe I certainly appreciate the input. This engine has me a little frustrated because it defies just about all I do to it. I was mistakenly told that the CAM STOPPER PLATE on the Rocker assembly was a possible compression release mechanism. A forum member who was very good and does not appear to be around on here anymore (Alleyoop) had stated in a much earlier thread that it's purpose was to keep the engine from running backwards. I have altered it and now may need to reinstall a standard one.
