inspecting inside valve cover area

[Wally]

I am not not sure about a rebuild. I broke everything down and tested along the way. I cant really find anything "wrong" so far. 

I just took off the valve cover to start inspecting.... any thoughts from image?

How do cylinder pressures look?

[Wally]

none were really what i'd consider bad

[Zed Head]

No offense, but how do you define "bad"?  

Be careful with that spray bar.  They're fragile.

gotya. So i watched a youtube test and he said they should be around 160psi... Mine were around this some lower than others though

10% is the key that most use.

Looks pristine to my eyes, just like my '72 when I first bought it. A little dark from being parked for 10 years.
