UPDATE:

I tried everything imaginable to get my new engine to run, went over all my work and couldn't find anything amiss. I contacted the engine builder who came and got my VX and took it back to his shop. Called me a few minutes ago to tell me the exhaust cam on the drivers side was ONE tooth out. I hope to hae it back home tonight to finish up changing the differential fluids with some Royal Purple, draining the transfer case and putting in fresh fluid there, and finally finishing the brake bleeding. Once that is done a trip to the muffler shop and we're almost there!! I am sooo looking forward to driving this thing it isn't funny. I am ready to enjoy all this work we put into this thing.
