--- Begin Message --- ---Great news, Its running and I should start driving it tomorrow as
soon as I get the hood back on and do some adjustments. It was
something stupid on my part, the wires were one off. The car has tons
of power compared to when i purchased it a month and a half ago since
the emisions was completely elimanited. Thankyou all for your advice
and help to get this matter straightned out. I look foward to driving
it again.

> ---The distributor was never removed from the engine when the
engine was removed, there was no need to remove it since it worked
fine and the engine ran great where it was at, I played with the
timing a little just incase i bumped it some. I rebult the carb and
it worked fine before i removed the engine but could somthing have
