timing problem
I am tring to get this thing running and now I am real stummped been messing with the timing and when I set leading yellow to pin and try trail it reads same as lead no matter what I do whats up with that if I move trailing it moves leading and it runs but breaks up around 5000 rpm

What kind of timing light is it? Sometimes the inductive style will pick up the leading ignition even when it is clamped onto the trailing lead. If it is an inductive light, try connecting it as close to the distributor cap as possible on the T1 lead.

the ignitors use a single wire for the ground, check the wiring diagram, I had the same thing happening so I changed this so each ignitor was completely wired separately

That's because the circuit is completed through the back of the ignitors to the distributor/engine block which is obviously common. The actual WIRES already run seperately from each of the coils to it's respective ignitor.
