After a few more tests drives:

1. Noticed left rear brake fluid drops on my cardboard. I snugged up the banjo bolt and brake line flare.
2. Speedometer only goes up to 15mph and back to zero when stopped? Odometer looks to be working.
3. Temp stays just below 180 when driving and when stopped with engine off, will go a little above 180. I think this is normal?
4. Gas gauge goes to E when key is turned on, then back down to the left when key is off. I have about 6 gallons in the tank.
5. Last two test drives I had the heat riser spring installed to keep the flapper closed to direct the exhaust away from the intake manifold. After returning home, I didn't hear the gas bubbling or see gas running down the side of the carburetor.
