Any chance you are making the connection to hei distributor using the tach port instead of the 12v port as they are next to each other and somewhat difficult to read?

Welcome robertambrose20, and congrats on your first post!
Unfortunately, you have posted into someone else's thread and your question may not get the attention it deserves. While your problem could be a ground issue, I suspect a burned wire or a tach failure causing your greif. Try disconnecting the tach wire and see if it fires.

And, may I suggest you start a new thread for your question, it will get a lot more attention...
