Ok... before the problem is discussed, I have a new 3rd gen rewired alternator, new battery, new starter, FD fuel pump just installed, starter relay mod (diverts more power to the starter for faster cranking), and I think that is it.



The car is cranking but not starting ...but in a way I have never experienced before. It is cranking maybe 5 times as fast, and on every downbeat of the crank the car clicks and lights everywhere flicker. So to me, the car is seriously spazzing so I don't try to start it too much cause it's frightening.

You added a second starter relay beside the one on the starter?



It sounds like the coil voltage on your primary relay (near the clutch master) is dropping too low while you're cranking.

Recheck the connections from the battery to the fuse block to the primary relay.
