You'll get over it...
OOPS sorry boys and girls got you all excited for nothing...
After getting the engine running I still had a slow fuel leak at the schrader valve so I just took it off for now until I can get one that doesn't leak.

After having the engine running for those few moments I checked the OBD2 port for codes and this was the only one I had.

Hell ya! Woohoo! Rumble! Yeah, yeah, yeah! Love it!
Hell YES it really felt good to hear that engine run. Now to get some other stuff done and I can really start it and then tune it. We'll see what it sounds like once I have the whole exhaust installed.
But the big news is NO leaks or any major issues with the engine. To be honest I was WORRIED as heck that the engine was going to have a major meltdown when I started it.
I'll preface that I know nearly zero about your engine but think it's a v8. I was curious about the following things I annotated in the attached screenshot - I was expecting to see 4 sets but must be assuming they're the wrong things. One you were pulling on to rev, so it seems like a throttle body. What are they?

Dude! Congratulations! Awesome to hear the beast making noise - and great noise at that. It must feel good after such a long time.
Also nice to see you finally hired a videographer…
Good to see it alive.

I think Karlee (sp?) was worried it was gonna blow due to the smoke from the tranny fluid! Who’s the guy? Friend or boyfriend?
