John,
No, I have not made the first power up/ground run yet. My big accomplishment for the week so far is the reinstallation of the fuel pump and I put oil in the crankcase.
Yeah, I know, but that's how it goes. I'm pacing myself... I still have the manifolds to reinstall, carb, distributor and starter to go. The starter is still at the shop, I haven't remembered yet where I stashed the distributor and I'm waiting on those little rings that go in the exhaust manifold holes...
John
