She's in but not running. turns over. have spark but seems the injectors aren't working. I think they are most likely (fingers crossed) just jammed shut from sitting for so long.

Second motor acquired, this ones a runner. fingers crossed.
Installed it and just have a couple of issues with the starter motor but everything else is coming along nicely.
