Hi Matt,
Does Mike O'Connor rebuild engines professionally? If so, he might
keep a log of what was done on the engine if you give him the serial number.
If the oil seals were lubricated when the engine was rebuilt and he put a
coating of lubricant on the cylinder walls and cam area when it was rebuilt, it
should not be a problem getting the engine running. And it should run like a
new engine.
enjoy the performance of your "new" engine. You should get many years of
use out of it.

> Apparently it was rebuilt in MIke O'Connor years ago, and was
never started because the breaker assembly was missing. Based on
who rebulit it, I'm assuming that most of the possible problems are
not problems. I will run a compression test when I get it, as well
as everything else you mentioned.
