It was a nice day out today and I had a short work day so I got back at it.
Unfortunately , I put the same converter that I had before in because I wasn't going to have thw money before spring for a new one that I want.
Not too big a deal. I had it rebuilt and have only about 40 passes on it.

Progress!
I had my alternator not too happy with the crank trigger moving in.
After a series of calculated moves, they are now getting along fine.
Everything is now hooked up and ready to fire.
I took a 45 minute ride this afternoon to get some fuel to fire it up and...
They were out.
Fire up will have to wait.

No body wants to hear about my junk, they'll just say how I am doing this & that wrong.
