Update:
A few loose bolts on engine tin, timing not dialed in yet, coolant system
needs to be bled some more(not that hard imho) and DOH i forgot to put trans
oil in BEFORE i bolted it all up and made it more difficult to do.

BUT first try and it started right up :)

Lifters came preset at 1 turn, but I can hear a little tap tap tap, I have
zero experience with hydralic lifters, but I used to own an aircooled that I
was good at adjusting. Is it pretty similar except no feeler gauges?
