You know the wiring could be wrong...?  
 When I changed the spark plugs with new ones I noticed that the plugs on the distributor were crossed. I'm gonna check the firing order again. The timing might have jumped and the previous owner might have crossed the plugs to get it started again.

 I'm gonna check it again tonight...

I allready removed the timing chain and put a new one, but did not put it TDC before I pulled it off. I might have to do it all over again. Should the dots on the CAM gear and crank line up at 6 & 12 ?    Is there another way to check with out having to pull the front of the motor off again.

I'm in south Texas too....where are you located??   And....the mystery plug above the wiper motor....I think it has been concluded that its original purpose was for a manual washer pump.  Where the water hoses would go through the firewall.   Usually found on early 69's.   Correct me if I'm wrong though.

i haven't read the whole thread, but i had a demon 600 on a 360 once upon a time and that thing was an SOB to tune....the "4 corner idle inserts" were just a pain in the a$$.....if you have the ability to do it, try running an eddy 750....much easier to tune.....and pull the fuel lines and flush them out....check for an inline fuel filter, which would probably need to be replaced due to the old gas in the system.....also, 450 rpm is quite low, try upping the idle speed adjustment......I'm in Sealy texas a little west of Katy....whereabout are you located?
