Default rebuilt motor..ready for start up..few questions

well my motor is ready and I want to start it up. I have a few questions though if you can help me. I am not going to drive it yet , just start it up


1. Will I be fine with the pipes hooked to the intercooler???(i have the pipes connected but not to the intercooler)

2. My basemap is for 750cc saturated but I have 880cc p&h injectors in. I do not want it to flood it with fuel. I have a aeromotive fuel pressure regluator, b&m gauge, and 255 walbro pump. What kind of fuel presssure will i be looking for on the gauge??

also this is for a 83mm b-series if it matters

i wouldnt start it until its maped for your injectors, you will wash the rings out and they will never seat right, and right befor you do start it spray wd-40 in the plug holes this will help the rings seat faster

crank the engine over and over with injectors unplugged and spark plugs removed untill you get oil pressure. it may take a while but you don't want to start on a 100% dry engine. i swear i must have had that thing cranking over for like 45 seconds to a minute before my gauge read oil pressure. image the engine firing up and running for the first time with compression with no oil pressure for like 30 seconds. thinking about it makes me cringe.
