I've got the engine back in the car last night.  Having never rebuilt an 
engine I'm not sure how tight things are supposed to be.  The engine has 
new rings and has had the cylinders honed.  Should this increase the 
friction a lot?  There was much more resistance tuning everything by 
hand compared to the old block.


Not having one of Tom Walters priming tools, I used one of the 4 way 
screwdrivers.  Just used the drive portion of screwdriver and a cordless 
drill and it was priming heaven.
