Make sure power doesn't drop when the ignition switch is rolled for the starter to engage, pretty common mistake.

Dumb question, Did you insert a timing pill or down load a timing map?

I've got the same thing. It should just take a timing pill, and few basic hook ups: cam sensor, map sensor, crank sensor, both coil banks, power, keyed power, ground and tach. I've got the same thing in mine, and can take pics if you want. This is one from when I had a Holley TBI system on it:

Is it turning over fast enough these edelbrock boxes can be a bit ignorant if the engine turns over slowly
