A couple photos of my engine installation.
I started my engine today for the first time. Ran for a minute or two
at
idle up to about 1000 rpm.
Was running rough, not too bad considering I forgot to remove the
plastic bag over the intake air filter.
The prop is not on yet since it is inside.

Did you run it without a prop?

Yes I did.
I was quick on the ignition key, in case it would start to run too
fast.  It did not, it was very manageable.  I had run it on a test stand
a couple years ago (with the prop on) so I knew what to expect.
