OK I just finished swaping out my stock head, e3, and intakes on my 84. I put on a ported big valve head with ranger roller cam, box style intake manifolds, accufab fuel pressure regulator w/ gauge, la3 ,and a 3rd gen Bob's log. I went to set timing and the cam pointer on the back timing cover was broken/mssing so I used the string method found in the sticky's and finished putting it together. When I started the car it would idle very roughly at 500 rpm and wouldn't go any higher even with wot. Took it apart redid timing again and now it won't even start. I checked all vaccum lines and replaced any I had taken off durring the swap so I am pretty sure it isn't a vaccum problem. Any Suggestions??[/align]

 

Did you use all new gaskets?

Is your ignition timing right?

Did you make sure to hook up all the vacuum lines?

 

Yes,

IDK, can't start it to check but all marks were aligned correctly on the timing belt when I put it back on

Yes all vacuum lines hooked up

 

Did you use all new gaskets?

Your sure you set the firing order 1-3-4-2 (clock wise) on the distributer

 

yes and yes
