So I have the MSD installed.  It's getting spark.  All wires have been quadruple checked.  Still won't start.  Going to call MSD's tech line in a minute.  AAAAARRRRGGGHGHH!!!!   <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sneaky.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='

issed:'>   Weber carb works great.  Still have a few bugs to get out, but definitely works better than stock.

i know your a competent person but:
do you have the timing right?
do you have the wires on the right things, acording to the firing order?

Heh heh, thanks for the vote of confidence.  Actually, after I talked to the first two guys at MSD, I decided to tear it all apart, and solder it all back together.  Didn't work then, and with my 3rd try at MSD tech, a guy said, hey, you need tach adapter no. 8910.  I don't know why the other two didn't suggest it.  This guy asked a few more pieces of information about the fuel pump and the relay.  

So I'm off to Checker to order the part.  25 frickin' dollars and it won't be here until tomorrow.  Oh well.
