If you keep the current engine I would pull the injectors and have them cleaned and flowed.
Have you tried turning it over with the crank pulley bolt?
Just FYI there is a company in the MPLS area called TPIS. Tuned port engines were their thing back in the day.
I haven’t attempted it yet. That is first on the list before pulling and cleaning the tank. Hopefully later tonight or tomorrow. I will probably try and run it on the injectors that are in it. If they need work I’ll send them off and get them cleaned and rebuilt if needed. I’m going to clean the tank and change the fuel pump before I even attempt to start it or prime the fuel system so as to avoid giving them a certain death sentence.

I can’t wait to get the interior cleaned up to see how it really cleans up.

Paul- I’m not sure it’s a good idea to take advice like this from someone who’s got so many exes!
