Then use the timing tape to see exactly what the timing is doing. That will help you get the initial timing correct and tell what the hei is doing as the rpm goes up. A timing curve that is out in left field will cause all kinds of issues. Now we need to talk about fuel pressure. Much more than about 4 psi at idle and 5 while running will make it unhappy.

Excellent advise
