Don't post very often, usually just read and buy stuff, but I need help, I've got a first gen I p pumped, it's a 215hp pump benched by Seth, set at 460cc's right now 5k governor springs. Tork tek overflow valve. An s366 t3 housing with a .90 ar. 181/218 colt cam, Hamilton retainer, 24v oil pump, colt tappets, billet pushrods Hamilton 165lb valve springs 6x16 new era injectors, head was resurfaced .10 thousandths. Very Mild port on the head. Also a stock manifold for now.
My problem is it doesn't like to start when its cold with out a small shot of ether. Then it's fine, and will start by itself after. It runs awesome, plenty of power. 500 foot long burnouts with no brake is easy, tires are 35/12.5/20. I'm at a loss, could be an injector issue ? I had a shop reset the pop pressure to p pump specs, also on number 5 after I first got it running, the locknut on the rocker arm, loosened up and the push rod came off the rocker arm, it had a miss, I'm possibly thinking it could of opened the valve to far and bent it, but it does not have a miss now. And runs awesome just hard to start, timing is around 26 to 27 degrees if I did my math correctly. Any help is appreciated. Thank you !
