well my baby is back together all seated in its place, filled w/ coolant, added some fresh plugs, and went to start, she turns over and then kinda pops out the exh.
Pulled #1 spark plug, checked for compression stroke (good) hooked up the cam sensor tool and the light is lit:confused:
I even had my wife come out and turn over while I had my finger in the hole:biggrin: its right on stroke.... what can possibly be wrong,:confused: need some suggestions dont make sense and iv'e built several before, im running big stuff 3, and had reinstalled the file that last started vehicle... oh and if Im turning over and slightly start to open the throttle, she struggles to turn over..
Its like the timing is 180 out
thanks, ray
 
did you use your stock cam sensor cap or caspers new one with the led light on the top of the sensor you can set the sensor with this new cap at TDC not 25 degrees AFTD when you set your cam sensor wich way did you turn it clockwise then counter clockwise just till the light comes on your on it here is my no. i work on these cars everyday its my job 765-284-9744i would be happy to help you kevin
 
X2 0n the cam sensor. It may not be 180 off but off enough to cause this issue. It needs to be dead on.

Turbot990 helped me out w this, had timing off by about 25 degrees, LOL! so exited I set at zero TDC,sh*t happens, reset last night, had to wait till morning but, she fired and ran beautiful through the break in, 2500 for 30 min,, she smoked BAD for about 15 min. before clearing up.

"2500 for 30 min" are you running a flat top cam in it?
