Got it running tonight! Gadget overnighted the parts I needed for the fuel pump, and it all went together like a charm. I went through the routine as planned. Took out the plugs, and removed the valve covers. Oiled the cams and then turned it over to verify oil pressure and fuel. Both looked good. Oiled the cams again before putting everything back together. It took three cranks and then it started right up. Nasty exhaust leak I'll have to fix, which made a racket, but everything else sounded tight. No fluid leaks. Ran it for 20 minutes and got it up to temperature. Was a little rough at first and sluggish on the throttle response, but it evened out and sounded sweet by the time I shut it down. Drained the oil and dropped the filter. Everything looked clean.

Tomorrow I'll take it out for a road run-in.
