can you explain "stack fire" that's a new one on me.

My first question would be,, even tho it appears to be a ignition problem, are you SURE you have clear fuel filters and fuel delivery, a carb that isn't experiencing float issues... etc.

For an HEI to act randomly wild,, it's almost 99,9% of the time got to be module inside the distributor, OR a bad wire feeding that module.
