Gentleman. I originally thought I had an electrical issue with my motor starting intermittently. Every once in awhile it will sputter and seem like it is going to fire. Today I decided to hold the key a little longer and presto she fired. Runs like crap and I have to keep choking it for it to run. Does this point to a possible problem with my fuel pump. It is worth noting that the vro pump has been taken off of this motor. Any troubleshooting procedures I can do. Thanks everyone for the great advice thus far
