69 gmc trouble starting
I have a 69 gmc with a 350. I pulled the top end off. Cleaned up the heads. New valve seals. Bought and Edelbrock rpm air gap intake and put an Edelbrock 600 cfm carb on it with an accel ignition system. I finally got it to fire up but it will not stay running for more than a few seconds. Ideas?

It is just a daily driver. Nothing crazy. Just wanted a hair more out of that 350 and wanted it to look a bit more appealing under the hood. It is just a stock(possibly original fuel pump) mechanical needless to say.

If the pump is working as it should, possible the carb float isn't set right. Mechanical will run around 10-12 lbs.

'Old school, general rule" with cranking for 5 seconds, you should fill a pop bottle (then 12 oz). Dieing as you posted is lack of fuel, backfiring is ignition
