Thanks for looking, yea i know the msl didnt show much, i didnt think it was that important for tuning, mostly because i didnt know how to really read it...i understand the viewer better now though. i wish i couldve taken a log when it was running, i do have a video (not that that helps) but it cranks for under 2 seconds, then idles at 1200rpm. I dont know what changed since then, but i guess ill pretend that never happened and start messing with other perameters.
Should i change squirts per engine revolution, injector open time, and things like that?

Re: Ignition settings for MSD and points
Id like to think that im not just throwing parts at the car, but my new plan is to run the ignition exactly as i had been running it on the carbed engine. I plan on picking up a crank trigger to isolate the efi from the ignition system. When the efi is up and running (and i get my second vehicle on the road) ill come back and will make the MS control individual coil packs, with fewer variables to setup and troubleshoot it should help. Thats the plan, i did play with the CPW and some other things before i left, it seemed to help.
