I have never seen so may people in my life worry about "More things to go wrong with it" in my life than on this board. Seriously. A gas engine takes more screwing around with than a diesel. You have to change plugs and points and you have a cap and rotor and plug wires to all go bad which if you add them up is more "things" to go wrong (6 plugs, 6 wires, 1 cap, 1 rotor, 1 point set, 1 condenser = 16) than a pump and injectors ( 1 pump, 6 injectors, 2 fuel filters=9). If you want to get into cost, a rebuild on the injection pump and injector set is not a whole lot more than a rebuilt carb and a rebuild on that vacuum advance holley distributor. Plus the 135 fan is right, if you run that thing any amount at all the Perkins will use less fuel and save you enough money to get it all rebuilt.
