Somehow I had a feeling this would happen, Here goes
I have a 81 that most of the vac lines were screwed up and the EGR and carb were bad......so I got rid of all the emission controls.
I put on a new Edelbrock 2101 (non EGR) manifold and a 600 CFM 1406 carb with new fuel filter and a HEI distributor (used), the engine will not fire up, the timing is right on the money and I think it's flooded now and in the morning I'll put in a fresh set of plugs and try again. I did this on a Camaro many years ago and it worked fine.
Now I'm thinking that the alarm system is keeping it from starting or someting like that, I think I'll hot wire right to the dist just to bypass everything and see if it will fire up.
Am I on the right track??? doing this.
