Large chance it has an updated manifold; does your exhaust go up through the hood? Either way, easy enough carbs to work on.
The nice thing if you decide to pull the head; you should have no trouble getting the pistons loose:
ATF; then some diesel on top & lit on fire [I'd never used the fire trick until a 22-36 I have apart right now; sure seems to help!] right before a solid chunk of post and a large hammer -if you can get 2&3 or 1&4 to move up first with the rod caps off all of them, the other two should be quite cooperative for the hammer.
The bad thing, price creep! :
I have the head off, hmmm, maybe I'll have the valves ground.
Valves shot? (likely a couple with issues if it's been getting water in there),
Better put those in.
Guides are shot?
Well since it's apart, better put them in.
EEK; I have $500 [+/- about $300] in the head! No point in blowing all the compression down the bore if the head's perfect.

and on :shock: :lol:
That noted; I got several running for no more cost than an oil change and a few gallons in the gas tank, but just warning how easy it is to add one cost on top of another. :P
