And it's alive! Starts right up and seems to idle just fine. Everything sounds fine but I stopped it to check fluid levels and I smell gas. I'm thinking it must be running pretty rich, until I see a huge wet spot under the engine. Fuel leak, bad one too. I look up from under the truck and find the high pressure fuel line is dripping wet. After more brief testing it's coming from here:

I tried tighten the joint more but it didn't help, still just spraying fuel out.

I talked with Mike @ ORS yesterday and he thinks the fitting adapter must be in backwards, but today I got it apart and it was in correctly.

Here's a pic of the end of the ORS adapter that screws into it:

Any ideas why this connection won't seal up? I did notice both parts are steel. Is that cool to have a steel into steel compression fitting or is there some trick I'm missing here? It's Saturday now and ORS is closed until Mon.
