12 valve won't start except off ether
98 12 valve with 370 injector, 13 mm pump used don't know much about. Brand new air dog and duel feed lines to the pump,19.5 degrees of pump timing. Won't start unless u put ether on a rag. Thought it wasn't cranking fast enough so I put 2battery chargers on it and used jumper cables to make sure I had a good connection to starter and grounds. Cranks faster but still no start. Smoke comes out of the pipe during cranking

You're issue is either fuel supply to the ip, or the ip its self, try to hold up the lever and have your buddy turn it over, i have seen them where they will run not held tight up but will not start. pretty much what it is doing here. try that and get back on here and let us know how it turns out for you

One of the problems is this engine was a basket case went I got it, I put a Hamilton cam it with valve springs pushrods everything. Not sure of compression ratio but it's a bear to turn over by the balancer bolts. Bottom end is supposed to be a better than the original. I double checked injection timing but doesn't mean I'm right. And there is no fuel plate in the pump
