I never understood the idea of trying to turn an engine over before everything is completely buttoned up. The chances of screwing something up are high enough with a 1st start... why make it 1000 times riskier by trying that shit without a working fuel system or exhaust? Unless you really want to start over rebuilding the engine (or the whole car), I guess.
