Re: small block firing on every other cylinder in firing order

After reading your posts thru again, I'm starting to suspect that there is a problem in your main fuel circuit.

It has been over 20 years since I had a 2 bbl apart, but if memory serves me correctly, when you remove the ventris, there are 2 check balls under there. Are they clean, and free to move? Are they there? Are the circuits clear?
You say that when you rev it up, it seems to run on all eight, so that would rule out the enrichment(power valve) You also say that when you move the throttles, you see fuel squirt out, so that rules out that circuit.
