Bill shared this Autorevolution article. I've included the video of the rebuild as well.

    I loved the two video.
  2. i was born in the south too
    i watched the 2 videos , most of them -- the timing gear part was bogus , if the marks line up , they line up , case closed -- the guy did a cheapo valve job to the head , but nothing for the exhaust valves ? -- willys shop manuals describe how to install the oil pump , the distributor slot has to be at 11 oclock , big side of the slot up -- i used to do all this when i was a kid , smoking muggles and drinking beer -- i would rebuild a f-134 completely and have it start and run on the first try -- this guy does has some basic knowledge of automotive mechanics , he missed a few items , but he didnt give up ... BRAVO !!
