347 based on an early 302.
Ran beautiful on dyno but, in the car, developed a Calackity, clackity . diagnosed as piston slap, at first but, got a bit louder, so back to the builder.
torn down & now back from builder, in car.
First start up - stuttering, shaking, running on 4-5 cylinders,
shut down after approx. a minute of this, missing, shaking, backfires.
Brought to TDC, power stroke, rotor on #1, firing order a-ok
H.O. - 1,3,7,2 -6,5,4,8
Called builder- Yes i set the rockers
Checked distro - Petronix Flame thrower- air gap of module was off, maybe 2x what it should be
Could it be that simple? - Anyway, plugs were soaked in gas on cylinders that didn;t fire, little gun shy of trying her again, just because i didn;t find any glaring errors
Next on the list- Check rocker arms i guess?
Other than rockers, i have no idea where to go from here.
Suggestions welcome!
