Let me add to this mystery... Mine started this weekend. it will crank run fine. Then the next minute it will not do anything. then sometimes will sounds like im not getting fire. WTF!!! It makes it own mind up everytime I turn the key.

Dropped my lil girl off at a school function on the football field. When I pulled up all these guys were stopping me and asking about the car. So I pulled up and turned it off, got out for a few minutes of head swelling praises. (let me add my tag says FINDOUT) When I got in it, the dang thing would not fire off. Man I felt Like an idiot. Yea I found out alright. I found out the damn thing wont crank in front of about 1500 people. I tried to be sneaky and wait until everyone left the function b4 I messed the it. 3 hrs later I called a ROLLBACK.

I am building a BOSS 347 w 205 AFR heads. Should be done gathering parts in a month or so. I am just going to pull this motor freshin it up and sell complete minus a POS 6A. Any takers!!!
