My turbo na ran for the first time!
Put the engine back in today and it did really well. Started quickly and idles nicely. AFRs and oil pressure look great.
Problems- It leaks oil from the turbo lines. Will be a pain to fix but I'll get it done. It has a small coolant leak, not a problem. It has horrible lifter tick now. Maybe that's just from sitting for a long time? The manifold started smoking. I'm hoping that's just grime and fingerprints and oil and crap burning off... I hope.
Anyways I think it went pretty well, let me know what you think of it.

Thanks everyone who's helped me along the way so far and answered my dumb questions
