@@jeremyturgeon4493 I hear “cold start” and I think, why would anyone want to hear it run like shit? Or is it bc it sounds more radical bc it’s running like shit and everyone will think you are that much cooler? I can’t figure it out
A cold start isn’t because you live where it’s cold & snows. The engine goes through thousands of degrees in temperature of explosions, friction & expanding metal. The climate temperature difference between Canada & Florida is so small compared to temperatures in the motor, near irrelevant
These ol' classics are one of a kind, but when they came out with fuel injection you really can't beat that. As a teenager my first car was a '76 Monte Carlo that was hard to start in the winter & my 2nd was a '72 F100 pick up. Now with everything fuel injected they start right up the first time ready to take off without it dying before pulling out of the driveway.
Have you upgraded any ignition components? Simple things like ignition coils, distributor, plug/wires, modules or ignition boxes can greatly improve starting efficiency. All at economic prices too 👌🏽Throttle response greatly improved on SBC 350.
Msd coil msd ign box msd distributor 9.5 mm silicon wires it's a pain to start due to the good old 850 cfm toilet on the engine allowing the fuel to back flow to the tank
Holy hell, I bought my first truck from you… 1984’ Chevy with the 305, blue on white!! I miss that truck, I’m 21 now, and have an 84’ f150, that I’ve been working on… I really miss the Chevy you sold me ☹️ And too anyone wondering, that truck he started, hurts your ears standing right beside it. Lol.
Cold start with closed choke. Set high idle above 1200rpm. On the warmup, 3-4 minutes kick down idle to 600rpm in drive automatic or 700-800 for manual transmission
I posted the can kit number in the comments below is a roller cam and will need springs and upgraded push rods and rockers it also helps to have headers and if automatic get a 2500 to 3k stall converter

Brings back good memories
