Help new lt1 not firing on cyl 1,2,7 and 8
Ahhhhhh help! Lol. I'm just into firing this LT1 up. It's out of a 95 camaro and installed in a 91 Z. It fires up but headers 1,7,2 and 8 all stay cold. I have spark and clearly lots of fuel(in cylinder 1 so far). Anything I should be looking for??

Update found the issue. The guy who built it didn't set the rockers and they jumped out of position. Now to see if any damage was done :-(. One rod is missing ???

Chances are its down in the lifter valley. You can try and fish it out with a magnet but chances are you will have to pull the intake. Should also take that time to inspect the pushrod cups in the lifters of those that came loose. Sounds like your engine builder dosnt know what he is doing...
