Andrew here's the short version. We did find out what the problem was and it was no fault of Holley's.
Turns out my distributor is set at a fixed timing ( WITCH WAS AT 44 DEGRESS ADVANCE!!!!!!!!!!!!) so that was the problem with the hard starting . That was causing the starter kick back when I tried to start the car. We installed a MSD timing retard box that lets the car start at either 10 degress or 20 degress then returns to the set timing . This cured that problem. I do not understand to this day why it was done this way ? Holley has the distributor I need but they don't make it in the short version that I have on my car . But I'm working with them to see if they can build it for me . I spent all winter learning about the system so I can utilize what it has to offer. Right now it's only doing fuel management . That's the short version the long version wouldn't be so nice .
