Question How to start a rebuilt engine out of car

My next project is converting the 1.8 to upright. But FIRST, I have to finish the current project...
I rebuilt a VW engine and it's still on the stand. How can I start it prior to putting it into the car? I'm using the Energy One starter mount (it's plastic!), and the engine's on a stand. It just doesn't turn over very quickly. If I take the plugs out, it spins fine, so I don't think I screwed up the bearings. Is the starter gounding somehow??
Any ideas?
Thanks-
