I finally got it running! Yesterday, actually!

That's idling around 700 rpm with a little revving... runs pretty damn good, considering I haven't even set my base timing! :1

I've gotta finish building my alternator mount, fill it with coolant, set my base timing, mount and wire a battery, and do some rough tuning before I can even think about driving it anywhere.

There's a thread in GD about it. If you want some help getting the beast running mint, let me know
