No fire. I have it wired as described, did the test of checking for spark when raking the distributor lead across metal while coil wire is held by manifold and get spark.
Elaborate on the "no fire" statement. Please dont tell me you cranked it. if it sparks like described with the key in "run and in "start" then all is good except the dist (reluctor gap/pickup continuity), somewhere between dist and zigzag pullapart connector there's a problem since from the other (body) half (that you used) of the zigzag connector downstream it is OK as it is producing sparks but we might still be missing something. Do NOT fire it till we get this & we are CLOSE!. Do you have another dist you can plug in (/6/sb/bb) & spin the bottom shaft by hand & see if it make it spark just like dragging the male end of the body half along the intake does (in run and in crank/yellow wire pulled from SR).
