Get the timing correct. There are some variations between the different model V-4 Wisconsins, more than I can remember anymore.

Even if your's isn't one of those engines, firing order and timing are CRITICAL. I suggest getting a factory manual that exactly corresponds to the engine model. Experts have posted that the older ones are better. You may be able to find one on ebay, if nothing else. Properly torque the headbolts, and retorque them after the engine has run.
