Well an update. Didn’t get the motor in . When went to prime the motor it leaked oil from the oil cooler . Had to buy a new end cap for it . The logs I have I have to grind out some material to get the wires to fit , dam backwards engine lol oh and had to get spacers for the logs . On a happy note I found a newish tach to match my new gauges
