im chasing my tail. installed RNH 347. had to work out some firing issues (dizzy 180 out/firing order/messed up MSD box). after doing so, the car ran OK. it missed and would hold idle sometimes - but it ran. I figured it was because the valves need to adjusted.
trackheat heads, stock (new) lifters, 1.7 scorpion roller rockers.
lone behold, i tested via exhaust/paper.. that one or more exhuast valves were staying open. so - i go to adjust. i use FTI's adjusting techniques - 0 lash, .5 turn on adjuster nut, tighten locking nut. fire it up - its surges and then dies.. and when i try to give it gas it dies and back fires.
I originally thought i mixed up some wires, so i double checked. nothing. checked all electrical connections and nothing is apparent.
where do i start now ? i just want it to run
