Website update with 51 Farmall H rebuild

Well I now have 2 1/2 hours on the engine. It started out running rough on first start. After 1 hour of running, I reset the valve clearances which were way too tight. #1 intake and #4 exhuast were not closing at all. Now she is running quite smoothly. Changed the oil and had it tested for either gas or water in it. Oil tested as oil. So far so good. All I have left is rebuilding the charging system, paint and install lights, and paint the tinwork. Still have to repack the wheel bearings and paint the lower bolster and all the hubs and rims.
