It's not exactly a new restoration... This engine was set aside for preservation back in the 1960s, and with the exception of the period from about 1975 to 1986, and 2007 to 2021 (IIRC), has been running ever since. This video just shows her being put back together at the end of her more recent overhaul.
Congratulations on a job well done. She is running like a swiss watch , You have corrected the piston valve timing error, to give a nice even beat.
Another Pacific saved from the scrap heap. Pacific engines are my favorite. Cheers from eastern TN
