No thrill like the first start. Good luck.

Thanks for the tips Lynn.  I'll probably take your advice on spinning the
engine up with the starter first.  That will pump some oil to fill the
coolers, so I can top off the sump again.  It may also move a little water,
and perhaps the largest air pockets will appear so I can refill before
cranking.  The target date is Sunday, and I'll let everyone know how it
goes.  I'm also thinking of setting up my video camera to record the event,
if I can see the plane though the smoke cloud :-)
