Firing is definately off... it's like the cams are swapped with the each other. Like the intake cam in on the exhaust and vice-a-versa.
Restart from the beginning and check everything out... when number one is firing the intake should be closing and the exhaust should be opening. Turn it manually over by hand and check it out.

well its running now we ended up retiming it aggaaainnnandit worked.. so now the car is running althoughhaving another prob, i had to relocate the battery to the hatch and i ran back 4 gauge ground and power and for some reason its starting realllly really hard and popping the 80 amp fuse i hgave by the battery , and then i put ina 200amp fuseand it turnsit cherry red and smokes... should i run another power wire back? and ground?

i put the battery in the trunk also blew the 80 amp fuses like crazy, so i put a solid piece of metal and it worked ok from then but i had to sand it ocassionally cause the metal had burn marks never firgured out how to end that... does it really need to have a fuse? i kinda wish i had just done a distribution block with no fuse insteadIn the Garage
