make sure coil harnesses are plugged in correctly, you would think this was impossible to screw up but I had to learn the hard way, mine was doing the exact same thing.

verify your ign switched is 12v.. if you used the coil wire it prob still has the resistor wire in it.. then you only get 8v and it will start and die like you describe.

You will have to go in from the bottom on the drivers side. Every set of headers I have used on the drivers side went in from the bottom. The passenger side slides right in from the top. I ended up having to remove my steering box to get it in. The spark plugs even caused some interference.
