Re: massive problem
you sure the distributor was at correct tdc? And what timing are you running? Also, have you verified the plug placement is correct?

Re: massive problem
Sounds like something is seriously messed up with your timing. Any chance the timing chain skipped a tooth?
Was it running ok before/how long ago? If it is a points distributor, I lost condenser once and it caused it to backfire to the point I destroyed my exhaust system. The flashes coming out from under the hood were impressive too.

Re: massive problem
Sounds like your timing is of or your wire’s are wrong double check your firing order and reset your distributor where there is compression on the Number one cylinder…Hope this will help you..
