i would change the dual ballast resister. the white ceramic thing with 4 wires on the fenderwell or firewall.i would rebuild the carb.and pour some diesel or atf down the carb and let it sit for a while and crank it over by hand if it has been sitting for a long time.if the distributer is in the front it will be a bigblock. probably a 400 or 440 if the motor is original.if the dist is in the reare it will be a 318 or 360 if the motor is original.i would change the fuel filter before trying to start it up also.
