Drove it without the hood so I could watch and hear the engine... here's the hangar queen back from her maiden voyage:




The good news - The engine is incredibly smooth.... it doesn't even wiggle.... rock solid. I took it easy, but eventually got up to 4000 rpms in 1st and 2nd and put 2 to 3 psi of boost on it..... nothing sudden, just steady pushing followed by slow coasts..... took it up a steep hill in 3rd at 20 mph and fed some throttle to it..... no pinging. Aside from the accel/decel adjustments that are needed, it's running great for the rich AFR and modest spark advance controls I've loaded in the ECU.

The bad news - that didn't help the oil leaks - there's a bad leak somewhere. I can't believe the front AND rear seals are both leaking, so I'll bet on the pan and install one of the FelPro pan gaskets. I've never seen the need for them, but maybe this is one of those times. I just hope a pan gasket will stop what looks like a rear main seal leak.

Charlie, I need some instruction on the auto-tune function. I hit several vertex points where auto-tune made some minor corrections and eventually settled to 0%. I didn't know whether to burn each "0%" as it showed up on the display..... or just let it run and burn to the ECU when the trip was over...... so, I did some of both. The result of that trip is that I now have a lumpy-looking contour plot. How should I deal with the tuned points?
