Hye guys -
Trying to get my new build up and running and not having much luck.
Squared away all the wiring and tried to fire it up, but it just turns over. I have confirmed fuel pressure at 62PSI coming into the intake for the Sniper throttle body, and visually confirmed the fuel priming is happening.
I am sure that the HyperSpark distributor was installed at TDC of 1 (pulled the valve cover off and watched both valves close at the 0 mark of the harmonic balancer.
I also confirmed via video that I ma getting spark - at least at cylinder 5 - by pulling the # 5 plug, inserting it back into the wire, and shooting video of it while attempting ignition start. I can see spark, although it was not as big as I thought it would be.
Im getting RPM at the Sniper Screen and I am getting the green light at the CD box during attempts.
It just turns over. Doesn't even really *try* to start. I exhausted Holley support (they were excellent).
Seems like its a timing/engine issue. What I have changed within the engine is as follows :
Edelbrock Total Power Package 367 HP Small Block Ford Top-End Engine Kits 2091
Edelbrock Aluminum Roller Rockers 77780
Trick Flow® Track Max® Harmonic Dampers TFS-19006
COMP Cams Hi-Tech Pushrods 7929-16
I have a really hard time thinking I bungled the cam or Timing Chain install, but I suppose its possible. Concerned that maybe I didn't adjust the valve lash correctly, but I did this all on a stand and believe I took care of things, although it was many months ago that I handled all of that part of the build.
What do you guys think?
