Quick summary
Fully built 9:1 compression
stock cams
speed density
rc1200s
hx40
The engine is fresh, just put it in the car. Im trying to start it and it'll crank and suddenly stop, followed by a grinding noise from the starter on the flexplate. I have to crank it and give it gas and the engine will backfire, and release lots of black smoke from the exhaust. (I have no exhaust pipe on the car atm, its just the hotside of the turbo). When the car fires, I can hear all 4 cylinders fire and then back to cranking. Ideas?
