I'm on my 100th plus motor. Still makes me nervous until weeks after its running to the point that the wife asks why I still do it. All I can say to you is, it is what it is. Good or bad just go from there. Good luck.

Was going to ask for an update, but you're probably on the water.
Fingers crossed for you. Good luck

Nervous is a good thing. It keeps you on your toes and makes you triple check everything.

Best of luck!

Don't sweat it. Take you time and it will be fine. It's only parts. If they break, someone will make more.
