Been having some issues for a while started using a lot of fuel and then I noticed the exhaust manifold would get pretty red within 20 minutes of running machine under normal use conditions, figured head gasket had failed because had also found a broken head bolt so long story short replace the head gasket went through the cylinder head At Machine Shop reassembled everything start it up runs great but after about 20 minutes of running at the exhaust is still getting red and it's really weird because the exhaust is only getting red in the center of the manifold and then following up the pipe about 4 inches. I'm getting good airflow out of the exhaust tip, the carburetor has been rebuilt and replace the distributor with one that has electronic ignition pulled the timing cover make sure didn't skip the keyway. The timing marks lineup exactly where they're supposed to be chain was nice and tight. I'm running out of ideas. Thank you.Sent from my iPhone</blockquote>
