Engine hard starting won't idle long

hotstuffMember

My engine is timed at 14 initial and 34 total advance, I have a 650cfm holley that was rebuilt because it had a blown power valve (flame came out of carb when I put on a heat shield for carb). Car is now hard to start, and when it does it runs a few minutes then pops a few times and dies ( same prob before and after carb rebuild). After that it won't start until cooled down ( not overheating and carb not problem, I checked). I have an electronic ignition (Motorcraft). Could it be the ignition? A solenoid? The same problem before carb rebuilt. Are there any ideas? i really don't want to buy a new ignition if I don't have to, but I will to fix it.
