starting issues

Got a 86 fc with an s5 keg, no rats nest, no smog pump, no ac, 5-speed, full racing beat exhaust, and safc2. Starting the car is difficult. It cranks turns over for a sec and dies. I have to do this multiple times before it will actually hold and not die out... I have to apply gas and it backfires loud and will continue to do so until it gets to the point where i can let off the throttle and it idles by itself... The idle bounces between about 750-850 rpm... Anyone know what the issue could be? Its making me angry..... I'll get a vid up sometime tomorrow.. Any info is appreciated.

the noise is very distorted due to wind and being recorded on a cell phone...
