    What's wrong with it? I think it's coming along very nicely. My only suggestion would be to deep six the spark plug wires if they are Accell's.

    Man do I know what you mean about Accel wires. I've been beating my self over the head trying to find the low speed misfire in my truck. finally bought a set of stock wires for the 390 and replaced the plugs and presto, no more misfire.

    Duane, I've had nothing but problems with Accell plug wires. For about the same money you can get Taylor Spiral Cores. I have found Accell's to have over 5k resistance per foot and the most I found with Taylor's was 500 ohms in the longest wire.
