I now some new MERCH available!!! THANKS FOR SUPPORTING THE CHANNEL!
okspeedshop.myshopify.com
Description:
Legend has it that this motor was build for the dirt track races with a giant cam in it and a rebuilt turbo 400 tranny. 3500 stall converter. She’s a 400 block Chevy with a 350 crank making her a 377 Stroker! The only problem is she’s been sitting in a field for 6-7 years. Follow along as I drag her home, clean her up and try to breath some life back into the ol girl. She’s a fire breather I will say that much!!
Thanks for liking commenting and subscribing. I need all the help I can get on this old pickup so please give any advice that you can!!

It's a full belltech set up all the way around with nitro drop 2 shocks. The shocks are for 3-inch drop but it makes it a firmer ride in my opinion much better handling that way too and they have plenty of stroke still no bottoming out... 2" C notch as well.

Factory filter is on the carb inlet on a quadrajet, so it’s after the pump. Personally I would have it before the pump too, not knowing what condition your tank is, run the two filters. Fuel is probably bad, pull the tank, check and clean it, blow the fuel lines out. Go through the firing order, if you have not already Clean or change your plugs

@@okspeedshopjust got farther into the video. I don’t think it’s locked up. I think it may just be hydro locked. Pull the plugs and see if it turns over. If it’s hydro locked it won’t turn over by hand either because theirs no where for the water to go on the pistons. If you pull the plugs and it still won’t turn over it’s locked up.

@@okspeedshop theirs multiple variables to it back firing out the carb. 1 could be air to fuel mixture not right.. could be an air leak or like you said timing. Being that you have to keep the rpm’s up to stay running I think it’s running to lean which is not enough fuel. If it was too rich it would back fire out the exhaust. I’d start by taking the carb off and clean it regardless and when putting it back on check make sure no vacuum leaks and play with the idle screws to find that happy medium spot. If you want to just jump to it just bump the idle screw up and see if that helps. If you go through all of those steps and still nothing I’d check fuel pressure and filters. But with it running when giving it gas I think it’s just the idle screw. They tend to work loose from vibration over time.

It sounds like it's still not hitting on all 8 . Either another wire is crossed or timing or timing chain has jumped a notch or two. Or the plugs are really bad in it. Good luck!

You should do a compression test to see whether there are stuck valves. A stuck intake valve will cause backfiring and noise out of the carburetor. One hint for you as you get more experience working on things like this- work backwards from what the worse cause for an engine not turning is. You spent a lot of time changing the starter, and worrying about the wires to the starter, and plugging the turn signal relay back in, when the engine was just flat out locked up. If you aren't sure what you should do, google it.If you guess at things you will go from an engine that's probably already in time to one that is way out of time. Remember that doctors don't try to cure the symptom, they try to cure the cause. I'd do the compression test and make sure each cylinder is contributing. Have fun!

The timing is off there is a clamp on the bottom of the distributor that you have to loosen up to adjust the timing

Trace your firing order out. Or its 180 degrees out. Not really positive on the 180 out though. I wouldn't move the distributor cause the vacuum advance looks like it's in about the right vicinity its supposed to be. Carb is gonna need adjusting as well. Hopefully you wont have overheating issues with that 400 sb. It's got potential bro.
