[QUOTE="Trfsrfr, post: 205818, member: 3959"] Okay, new update: It runs. I put some gas to the carb and kicked her over a bunch and got it to start. And it sounds pretty good. If I had to I would have resorted to 2wheels' advice and dragged her behind the truck, but it wasn't necessary. I did not keep her running long because I dont have the cooling system hooked up, but for the 3 total minutes and 5 times I had her going, she ran, and I think ran pretty well. At first the cam area was very noisy. I also noticed an oil leak at the feed line, so I tightened those 3 fittings. Then I changed the oil to some 20w-50 and the cam noise subsided, but it's still there and doesn't give me a warm and fuzzy feeling, but that feeling is much closer than it was before she fired. So now my main concerns are; cam noise, and transmission. If I felt strongly enough that either of these two items were good I would hook everything else up and take her out for a ride. [/QUOTE]
