Ok, after intially starting, after putting my engine back in, it is now not starting. btw it has dual carbs. I know it is getting fuel to the carbs, has spark, and today I got a new Optima battery for free! Every once in awhile it will barely fire but that is it. Suggestions? Bad ground connections? Your comments, suggestions, insults, and wise acre comments are appreciated!

Thanks!

Forgot to mention that the green oil light does not come on all the time when trying to start, don't know if that means diddly or not!

Ignition timing?

Did you reinstall the ground strap on the transmission? Does it turn over easily by the starter?
