Sorry, I know this thread is really worthless, but I finally got my SR working properly! I replaced the radiator with a cleaner OEM rad, and it no longer overheats. Compression tested it and it got 160 across all four. Finally got proper valve cover washers on and it no longer spits oil from under the valve cover. All I have left to do to make it 100 percent is:

Wire e-fans to ignitionGet SSQV flange welded on to hotpipe (No BOV right now...surge city)Wire up gauges/install oil press. sender/install gauge pod/clean up Clean up wiring near the battery trayMake battery tie-down (using Odyssey slim battery in stock location)Install Koyo rad and nismo t-stat when they arrive in the mail (no longer a pressing issue)Get adjuster for power steering, new beltsHook up A/C, get custom lines made, new belt as well

I'm so pleased with this motor, it really makes the car feel like a sport car! Thank you all for your help. I know I didn't ask a lot of questions, but the topics you guys already created and the information i could gather from these threads really made my swap much easier!

I'm now a happy SR owner!
