Hi everyone, I'm starting a thread on getting my Attex running again. I'm starting with what I was told was once a Tomahawk. It's a '78 poly body model that got a JLO LR399/2 transplant. I ran it once briefly several years ago and couldn't get it started again. I recently found that it has very little compression in the cylinders. Now I have a Cuyuna model 440 on the way and can't wait to drop it in. However, I'm sure I'm going to need some help along the way.

Since the body doesn't match the 440 Thunderchief styling, I decided to make up another name for it. I kept with the Native American theme, and came up with "Medicine Man" because I am an EMT involved with search & rescue, and hope to make a way to carry medical equipment on it.

Here are "Before" pictures
