just a matter of turning it to get it in, also before you start it, loosen all the injector lines, it takes a while for the system to bleed the air out

I have everything back together and have cranked on it a couple times for 15 seconds. I am letting it cool for a bit as the starter started to smoke on the second 15 second cranking session. I cracked 4 of the lines not all eight cause some of them are so hard to get to. I sure am hoping i got everything back together right.

Started on the fourth 15 second session and had one leak on one return line. fixed that and know it is warming up for a test drive. I don't know much about the timing but i sounds great and does not smoke. I am going to try and get in tomorrow for a dynamic timing. I set it about the thickness of the line off to the passenger side?

Just went for about a five mile drive. truck is running well but way down on power, the gas pedal feels mushy and does not come back like it used to. Also i was only able to hit 6 pounds of boost pulling a hill at 2500 where before i would hit 10psi almost instantly on flat ground without trying.
