The distr is a factory HEI system. The car took a little time to fire at first but fired up. I will try the spark plug wire thing and a compression check. The carb is a edelbrock 750, not my choice, was my dads but seems to work good. When I try to idle the car lower than 1500rpm it starts to slowly die. I did try adjusting the valves again to zero but the same thing. There was no real tapping real loud except for the exh leak out of the heat riser. BEsides that the rockers were decently quiet.
