It has no hint of a loppy idle.
Pretty much sounds like a solid stock motor.
It is real smooth from 1000rpm up to 3500rpm.
Motor wants to do more rpms. I can hardly wait
to get it road ready and get the break in miles on it.
Then it will be time for a road trip.

Had a mishap already - The radiator core had a 2 inch tag
on it - The fan sucked the edge of the tag away from the
radiator enough to hit it. Then the tag got mashed between
the radiator and the fan causing a leak. So the next couple
of days will be radiator repair...
Then brakes ...
Then a driver seat...
Then DMV ...
Then fun....
