Well Travis, you win! I found some very bad news today looking at my 78K model. the engine is mint, and looks like new, tons of compression, but heres the trajic news. the engine serial number is CB750E-2440589. GAME OVER. That sweet engine is a 1976. and 15 feet behind the 1978 sets a one owner 12,000 mile Candy Antares Red 1976 with a stuck engine. I just cant help it, that engine has to go into my titled sweet azz 76. Its been soaking in PB blaster for 3 years now, and I havent tried to mess with it lately, but you can see its a no brainer.
