Re: My 66 Service Truck Build Thread

You've probably already checked, but I did a stupid thing twice on my truck. First time was when I first changed the plug wires. I had two wire right next to each other on the cap switched. Idled fine but couldn't drive it over 1500 rpm because of it backfiring a ton. Second time that happend was after the engine swap and putting an HEI dizzy in. Swapped two plug wires again and had a heck of a time figuring it out because I was certain that I had wired it correctly
