It's running at last! On 3 or 4 cylinders at least. There's a pretty loud clatter coming from the left bank. Hopefully it's a loose valve. I don't see how that would be possible considering how long the long block sat on the bench, but I have done it once before.

More concerning is what sounded like a ratchet going back and forth. It sounded like it was coming from the alternator/belt area, but I'm afraid of it being a chain dragging. I am scared to death one of those tensioners will fail.
