Stood the engine up and mounted on a homemade stand the other day. Wired it and then fired it on the first turn of the key. After a small ground issue. Was VERY happy about that because I wasn't happy that I bought an engine from someone upstate without hearing it run, and let it sit for 2 weeks eating at my soul as to the soundness of my actions. But it sounds great and is soo quiet compared to my otherwise flawless 94' 150 looper (Shhhhh. I haven't told her yet that we are going to have to find her a new home), and I have the etec Tech guy coming today to put the computer on it and do a compression test. If anyone sees this in time, any suggestions about questions to ask or things to look for? There is one very peculiar thing though, the EMM has 200HO etched into it. I know the 200 EMM could be fine for the 175 because both are the 60 degree block, but he 200 HO is the 90 degree block..... (Shifty eyed emoji)
