wont start!
sbc 350 with factory TBI and jet chip
cam 214/224 @.050 .443/.465 112LSA 97LCL
intake closes at 57.
2.02/1.60 valves with 1.5 rockers
9.63 SCR 8.13 DCR
plug gap set at 0.035
This is a brand new build. I am having trouble getting it to start. New distributor,cap,rotor coil,plugs and wires. It seems to want to fire just slightly and then will fire through the exhaust occasionally. I have checked the firing order to be 18436572. I have tried starting with timing retarded, straight up and advanced. I seem to get more as I advance it but still will not actually start. I am getting a nice fat spark but still nothing. I checked valve adjustment and lash. I have fuel, compression and spark. I figured that it must then be ignition timing related but still nothing.

When I was about six years old, a race car on a trailer went past our house. I thought it was the coolest thing I had EVER seen! And I haven’t been the same since.That was over fifty years ago. ...
