Electrical issues

Well let's take things step by step.......

Just what did you change exactly.

You can put a voltmeter on the V supply line to your ignition, put the key in "run" and see what you have, then turn the key to "crank" and read it during cranking and see what you have.

And what exactly is this system you have? Link? Is this the so called "ready to run" distributor which connects to the stock coil, or is the "big cap" thing that looks like a GM HEI?
