Could have been but due to my recent break up with Cait I need some time to myself first.

Timing done.

Although the coil is sparking intermittently from the negative terminal for some reason  :shrug:

ummm, no you didn't . you dd not have the timing set at 10 btdc for number 1 cylinder on the fire/compression stroke and it was around exactly 180 degrees off just like i told you it was when you described the problem . this is why it ran when we moved the plug wires half way around the cap, but what do i know.  :lmao:

it also ran on because it had a wiring problem just like i said it did before you told me you wired the coil directly to the battery .  :thumb:

Well, I can make it run perfect if you want it to, but to do that you cant be like my wife is . 

:lmao:

It may very well idle slightly rougher than your other cam even if it is perfectly tuned because it is not the exact same profile, but it should idle rough because it is a "race car".  :lmao:

And this was on the advise of my auto lec buddy just to get it started. I just forgot that's why it was running on..

well if he is so smart than why didn't you have him tell you exactly how to install the cam and set up the distributor gear and timing chain and tell you which parts were good and where to get them .  :lmao:
