Thanks man. I also found out firsthand how they also don't have exotic set-ups with mounting it. I had really good power on one short trip but this whole issue (all 2 months of it) was about the mounting and I am really happy I got it like 95% right. Maybe could have a better Orange Seal, but, is it worth like $120 to me? At least right now... no.

So, after all that, with the engine and all levels as is (oil etc) .. Brief drive in the neighborhood, while I still have some hours before working.. all month.

Healthy sounding. Just a little creaky on brake pedal but that's okay...
