To start it I had to redo timing 180, make a temporary gas tank because original was full of crude from setting too long, and have the starter rebuilt - it had 1 coil shorted. Then just a little tinkering and it started.

Shit it off, put a little water in it, then connected the top fill between the head and the radiator, topped off the coolant, and started it again. Have not heard that knock again. It was not idling down, and running at a faster idle than I like, but for the first run in several years, that is not too bad.
