Well, it runs, poorly.

I have some carb adjusting to do, but the ignition is running flawlessly. It will idle forever, but the high end and midrange are spotty. Also, after a wot run for a few seconds, the engine dies when pulling back to idle. I was hoping the needles would be ok since I haven't moved them since it was a weedie, and it ran good then. I put a rebuild kit in the carb during the conversion, so that should be okay. Looks like I have a leak at the backplate also, which I'm sure isn't helping. More to come after lunch....
