Yesterday I removed my gov and oil sensor and installed

18lbs springs. After I put it back together it started up no prob but with a high idle. On top of that the engine would stall out when I gave it gas. After about a minute or two the engine just stalled out at idle and would not fire again. I checked the spark plug and the torque on all the bolts, checked the rockers, and the fuel flow. I can not find out the cause for this it seems so odd. What do you guys think I should do?

You got me there. What I do want to mention is that you shouldn't run that engine now unless you have all billet parts inside. Those 18lbs springs are dangerous with stock internals
