'65 1098, has not run but few miles in the last 4-5 years. In the past it would produce a little smoke and oily odor. Started it the other day and it blueish smoke billowed. Pulled plugs and they are a very nasty black and oily. Compression on all cylinders is 175. Leads me to believe dried up oil seals. Have youtubed it and watched several videos and as usual give them partial credibility. I intend to replace the seals with the head in situ, I see NAPA has compressing lever tool for $15 that hopefully will do the job. Any words of wisdom and\or cautions before I dig into this project?
