ok so yesterday i got the iroc all put together, pics soon, and tried to start it. took a bit to build fuel pressure, naturally, had to fill the carb and such. then all i could get out of her was a pop here and there and maybe a almost start then immediate stall. i was told to check firing order, its perfect, and i kept messing with the dist. to adjust timing but the most i could get is a few pops then stall.

the carb is getting plenty of fuel, it caught fire twice..big thanks to my bro to put it out haha. I closed the idle screws then opened them one turn, this way i knew it was getting some gas but not flooding.

I think its narrowed down to the ignition coil or somewhere in that area. wires are used but they work, plugs are brand new ac delco's gapped to .045in, the coil is a few years old and i dont remember if it was bad or not when i took it out of the old motor.

any ideas? btw 305, 650 demon carb
