I hate to hear that Shawn. So close be yet so far. Do you feel that the new induction system is tuned for all it's worth? I forgot if your using a wide band or not.
Dont give up man, it will happen. All your hard work will pay off....
At this point it's hard to keep from being disgusted.
But the others might be on to something, having a fresh set of eyes, or a 2nd opinion and suggestions at this point might not be such a bad idea.

If it's worthless, I'll be down and take it off your hands.

start retard? timing chain or belt? valve stuck open? coil?




Start retard is where it has worked, brand new belt, heads were completly redone 6 runs ago, never checked coil.

Nothing was done to the heads just freshed up.

This was the first time it ever backfired with 2x4s.

Do you use a start retard? If so how much you timing are you pulling out? I had similar problems, many times it would backfire on startup when warm or act like it was flooded. It was fine when cold or hot but if it had been sitting for 10-15 mins it was a problem. 2 things were wrong to cause it. First, the carb was dripping fuel in the intake when it sat with the bowl full. If it was stone cold the dripped fuel would eventually evaporate. If it was hot there wasn't enough fuel dripped to make a difference. Second problem was too much start retard. I was pulling 25 deg, only option with a 7al3. I think it was enough to cause misfires in the cap. So fire the wrong cylinder with puddled fuel in the intake and you have flames coming out of the carb on startup.

Since i have put on 2x4s it has lost MPH! 60' is better but thats it. An caused nothing but problems in areas we have never had trouble with before.




Everyone that I have talked with that have changed to dual fours and manifold had nothing but problems..they are very tricky to get right and even harder for a heavy car..converter is a big deal with dual fours also..

Since the 2x4s have went on we have had 15 retard. Has started perfect everytime never once a problem. It has started better than the single 4. Car wasnt hotter or colder than any other time.

Fill them with fuel, take them off the intake and set them on the workbench for 20 mins and see if they are dripping. My old carb did that.

When I had a 572 In my car,,I always had trouble starting it..it had 16.1 compression and used to break the ring gear after around 20 starts or so..I didn't use the msd start retard,because I heard they very rarely work..so I installed a msd adjustable retard and used to crank it on -20 and when it started would switch the knob back to 0..worked great..I dont even use a retard with my small block and it has 16.1..it also helps having the 16 volt battery also...

Have been to 3 different tracks in kansas.

Dont matter if it 95* or 75*, air can be 1700ft or 4500'

60' can be 1.28 or 1.35

Dont matter if power valves are in with correct jetting. or change jettin with plugs in.

It dont matter what you do it will run 9.12-9.15 145 thats it!!!

How do the plugs look after a run? and what fuel are you using?

Sounds like you might have a air problem...

An now i cut 2 HOLES in the cowl HOOD. Didnt make a difference. But maybe its still not gettin enough air?

Plugs look good. Have checked them at the end of the track.

Just dont no how starting it 2 minutes later could have done this make damage an cause this much of a problem?
