wow! youre engine looks really sweet! I love the stealthy black you gave it.

but it sounds like you are starting it all the time, like it is not running on its own.

Youre ignition timing is an easy option/solution.

unscrew the screw under the distributor about 1/4. Then start your engine en rotate the ignition either way. If it gets worse, rotate the other way. you should hear the engine starting to run better.

I recently did this myself and it is real easy to hear. If you do not have a timing light, you can set the ignition yourself by ear.

almost forgot. before you start your engine, unplug the vacuum connection to the distributor and plug it. after adjusting it you can connect it again.

goodluck
