MS V3, fresh rebuilt with stock everything (for now) who thinks Ill get it started with an untuned MS?

I don't see why you wouldn't be able to get it started and running. Maybe not running well but running at least.

If you're using the generated VE table, it's going to be far too lean... richen the whole VE table up by 10-15% from what was generated (maybe even more than that), and I'm sure you'll be able to get it fired up.
