Re: Live from O'Reilly Nationals in Baytown
Well It still won't run. Just put Ed Wright's MSD box in it. If that doesn't work i don't know what else it could be. If your here and have any ideas please stop by and share. Again it runs perfect in pits,water and when you deck it. No power and won't turn over 7000 9n the run.

Re: Live from O'Reilly Nationals in Baytown
If you run an alternator, they can cause havoc ... I assume you already changed spark plug wires ..

I've also heard of similar issues caused with a bad shift light, master cutoff switch, etc...

Re: Live from O'Reilly Nationals in Baytown
I had a similar issue in 2010 with my SS Camaro. Changed everything under the sun. Igntion box, disconnected tach, plugs/wires/cap/crank trigger, ect.
Turned out to be a bad Master Disconnect Switch.

Re: Live from O'Reilly Nationals in Baytown
I agree with Chuck Beach. Could be backfeeding through the alternator.
