Wiring Problem, need help

[7000rpmisheaven]

Ok its running. It sounds better than ever. For those of you that don't know there is a noticable difference in sound between a carbed 5.0 with 2 ch. flows and O/R H and one that is fuel inject one with the same. IMO carbed cars sound so much better.

Anyways I didn't really figure out exactly what the problem was. I replaced a couple wires and connections that didn't look in good shape. Then I put it all togethr and start to run through all the tests you listed above. They all checked out ok. The I started it up and it ran. What I think happend is that I kept, unpluggin this and switching that and pluggin this in here instead of there. There was one connection to the distributo that looked like it had enough contact when it didn't. it could have been that. Thanks for all the help. I can finally move on to other things.

Tell me this does 2500 rpm in 5th at 80 sound like a slipping clutch. I don't remeber if 85 had an optional rear (3.08 or something like that).
