Hi Marc. Really like your build.
Just wanted to make a comment about the hydro lock in your engine. Check your oil before you fire it up. I had that happen to me years ago while I was at work one day. Forgot to switch off electric fuel pump. Pulled the plugs and cranked the engine and gas shot out the #7 cylinder also. What I want to say is that enough gas had gotten past the rings and drained into the oil pan. It was an hour drive home so I had to get new oil and filter and change it in the parking lot at work. Made for a long day. Your oil might be ok but I would check for gas before starting.
