Spark ⚡️

Hello I did the first start on my 85 camaro sc 305 4bl today and it didn’t go well I put a video on here I’m not sure if it went through or not but basically I know I’m getting fuel but I’m a little concerned about spark when I watched the video I noticed a 6 inch spark fly from no where I checked all my plug wires and every thing was good and they are brand new ac Delcos any one know what could be going on
