Car bogs when gas pedal is pressed

Hey guys,

so I threw my old KA-T kit on my new 240. Relocated battery to trunk.

It ran fine for a few days then one night coming home it just shut off and wouldn't start up so I had to tow it home. Before it shut off oil pressure/AFR was normal and it drove fine up until the rpm's slowly started dropping and the car came to a halt.

The next day when I went to turn it over it would crank but not start up. So I proceeded to check the electrical components to find out all my grounds were loose. Therefore I check my negative cable in the trunk and it seem the strap (the strap that holds the battery box) touched the negative cable (where I had it grounded on trunk/the strap showed a little burn mark).

I proceed to check to see if there was any blown fuses and there was none (checked cabin and in engine bay) so I tighten all my grounds and started the car. It was doing the same thing as before it would crank and crank but not start up. I reset the timing back to TDC and it fired up. It fired up and idle fine (1000rpm or so) until I went to push on the gas pedal; when I pushed on the gas the car bogged down.

I've replaced my maf (Z32) thinking that may the problem and problem still persisted. Changed distributors and bought a new cap (no button yet) and still no luck.

What could've happened here? Bad TPS? Bad IACV? Fried ground wires?

Sorry for the long post but any advice would be appreciated. I hate looking at my 240 just sitting there...

Quite stump at the moment. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
