Well I got fuel line hooked up, gas to carb. Tried cranking up the 300, almost tried one time, now its popping back through the carb. Acts like timing?, car has not run probably 15 years. All ignition is new. Carter carb new. Charging components new. Set the points, has good spark. Going to recheck firing order. Anything else I might check? Timing chain, gear new. I know that is timed correctly.Maybe lifters need to pump back up? I am worried about the dreaded BACKFIRE!! Any other suggesstions I might double check?
