Trouble after upgrades

Having some trouble after a few bolt on mods. Changed to a ported intake and 58MM TB. Installed Jet Hot long tubes and a X pipe set up. Also swapped out the Comp Rs for a new stock set of lifters. 1/4 turn adjustment after 0 lash. (comps were to damn noisy) Car ran fine when I first cranked it after the mods. Lots of improvement! After it gets warm and is driven for a while, it starts popping under less than moderate acceleration. When I approach a stop light, I have to do the right foot on the gas and the left foot on the brake kinda thing to keep it running. When its shut off (or dies) and I try to restart it, it kicks back like its waaayyyy to advanced. (broke a starter housing) I disconnected the coil wire to troubleshoot any mechanical or some sort of liquid lock. I cranks over fine, but when I reconnect the coil wire, it kicks back. At the moment, it will not start. Plugs are gapped at .050. The scanner shows no codes. Help!

adjust your idle using the adjust ment screw on the TB. with my 396 and BBK 58TB. mine would die at every stop light, and woudl never idle. after opening the blades of the TB slightly more with that adjustment screw the problem went away. hope fully this helps or you have greater isues

That helped at first. But when the car starts to warm up is when the problems start. Runs great cold.
