Thanks to everyone for your suggestions!

Not being familar with these fancy engines I failed to put two and two, or in this case three and three, together. One powerstage was missing from the engine and it didn't occur to me that there might be another one missing. The engine was supposed to be complete. I swapped over the second power stage, hit the key and the engine purred to life. It runs really smooth now.

I added two more quarts of oil and now I've got a reading on my stick.

I kept adding coolant/water while the motor was running and everything seems to be working properly.

Next up: A lap around the block to check for leaks and a little wine to celebrate.
After of course.

Thanks again to everyone.
