HotpodStang

I just changed out my head gaskets and got everything back together. I started the car and let it idle for a few minutes before i put my h-pipe back on then when i got the h-pipe back on and oxy sensors hooked up it started and when i touched the throttle just a little it would bog out and die. Now it won't even start anymore. Any insight would be grateful.

you probably just need to adjust the timing. Take the spout connector out and move the distributor around and see if it starts. Also recheck the firing order and are you sure you got the distributor in at TDC on cylinder one?

Its not a good thing to run with open headers IMO. How well did it start, run and idle when it did do it???

set timing, make sure sensors are hooked up correctly
