Brian, you mentioned I should do a comp test before I let it run then one after an hour correct?

I am most likely going to start her on Sunday so I will try to get it on video. I am a little nervous for the comp test but if it is low due to my parinoia about the apex seal spring installation then I will just open her up and stack again(hope not).
Mount 'em like I mounted my extra three gauges, do away with the idiot lights.

More just for curiousity. If there was anything that went wrong during the assembly - pinched side seal, apex seal, bad springs, missing a cornerseal, something horrendous like that, it'll show up in the first comp test and MAYBE you'll be able to catch it before it does real damamge but if a side seal slipped out of place, the damage was probably done with the keg was torqued. Just things to make you more paranoid. If you heard 3 clean even whooshes and the engine spun freely, you really have nothing to be worried about. It's more for curiosity. In my case, Dave and I are worried about me overoiling the engine with the OMP and a bit of premix in the gas. So my comp tests are just to make sure that the comp doesn't fall off from over oiling.

Like I said Sean, if you heard some even pulses and the motor spun pretty freely by hand, stop being paranoid, clean the sand out, get some douche and go to town
