Question VIDEO: Trouble Starting

I put this up in my build thread but didn't get much response;

Just hit 400 miles on the rebuilt, still starting hard when engine is cold...can anyone chime in as to possibilities?

(no, it's not flooding -____-)

Here's a video showing what I mean. . .

Is your coolant temp sensor plugged in on the back of the water pump?

cant tell if its the camera or not, but that sounds like one rotor once it actually started. hard to see if the tach was bouncing while cranking. how are your grounds? what mods, if any? emissions still there? was this video from a dead cold start?

check your Primary fuel injector clips to see if they are on tight..
That engine sounds like it's on one rotor until Bam.,.,it kicks in the second one.
