Being i was so close to getting it running I decided to go ahead and start it up. Ran good, middle cylinder firing and running smooth. After about 30 mins running it developed a knock in low RPM . I tried taking a video bu having trouble getting put on the site. the knock goes away with increased rpm. Seems to have a lot of pressure in the radiator but the pump is working and water is circulating, I did install a thermostat- it did not have one.
I'll keep trying the video
