Just tried to fired up my freshly rebuilt 440. No go. I have 12 volts to the end of the coil wire where it plugs into the distributor but when I put an inline tester on one of the plug wires it shows no spark.
I have the engine ground on the back of the engine attached to the fire wall.
This is a Firecore RTR system which eliminates the orange box and ballast resistor.
I have this set up in my 68 Charger and it fired first crack.
I also used a suction pump to pull fuel to to carb and dumped a small amount of fuel into the carb. I even installed this carb on my other Charger last week to make sure it worked properly.
If I screwed up the plug wiring wouldn't I at least have spark?
