sorry guys, it was upgraded to 12v system. The first thing i did was go through the fuel system checked lines, new filter, carb rebuild, so i think it has to come down to an electrical problem. The last time i tried to start it, the starter was barely cranking over with a fully charged battery behind it and the starter motor was getting very hot. So i am thinking about ordering a starter 12volt conversion kit from chevy duty, has any one used that kit, or is there any other companies that sell a similar kit? Im new at this, this is my first restore on my own, im really hoping to bring this stovebolt to life again and not sell out for a 350, thanks for your patience.
