Thanks for the input fellas!

I finally got the engine fired up this past week after much frustration. Turns out the provided frame mounted fuel pump was working just enough to move fuel to the throttle body but not enough pressure for the injectors. Then it just quit altogether.

So the next day I picked up an in-tank tbi fuel pump and the engine fired right off. Ran it up to temp and got it timed. Then ran it long enough for the cam break in.

But now I'm fighting a sudden engine shut off problem. The engine starts up fine, cold or warm, and will come down to normal idle and then just shut down like the ignition switch is being switched off. No stumbling or rough running. Just shuts off. So I'll be on the phone tomorrow with tech support and see if we can work through this problem.

Also got the brakes pretty much dialed in. All the steering linkage torqued down. All the re-wiring and plumbing for the new fuel pump completed.

The clutch is also not quite right. I've got the wedge adjusted all the way out to the end of the slave cylinder rod but the clutch is dis-engaging way too close to the floor. I think the Land Cruiser slave that I'm using does not have enough stroke length. The transmission does go into gear without grinding but it will need a solution.

And thankfully, no leaks (so far)!
