Groovy!!

Well we tried to get the car running today. No dice. We had it running for a minute or so at 2000 rpms good oil pressure etc.. But I tried to check the timing and it died. Now I was so burned out from trying to get everythng ready, I might be over looking something, but I checked the firing order 10 times and tried the 180* out route as well.

BUT, the carb (Edelbrock 1405) has spit fuel out of the top no matter what, even when it WAS running. So I think that might be an issue as well. Might be flooding it...

Any ideas?
