HELP MEEEE!!!!

Ok, I have a 86 block 350 in my camaro, it's got edelbrock intake and 600 carb, accel HEI coil and control module, rapidfire plugs and moroso wires. Problem is, it won't start at all. it just pops and sputters, it ran a few days ago, but it just stopped, so I re-adjusted the carb and put a new cap and rotor on cuz it looked a lil worn, but nothing, I'm kindof at a loss. Thanks.

Do you also have a NON CC distributor on there. But it should still run with a CC one. Sorry I have no other suggestions.

I do have a non cc dist out of an older car. The only thing i haven't checked are the plugs, cuz they're a real pain to get out with my headers. Anybody know anything at all else I can check?

Checked the plugs and they're ok, also completely took apartthe dist and checked it, no go.
I'm really running out of ideas.

You need to find out if you are getting fuel and spark. Pretty simple to do both.
