what did you do with the cold start. am i reading it wrong, but is the euro stuff on the Ljet system?
if so, you need to do some tricks to help cold start.
first and most important trick, is that you would route the cold start circuit to a port that is not used on the plennum (those lines would have been going to the heads side port on the US heads as that port feeds the intake valve ports) on the euro heads, that same port externally, feeds exhaust, so pumping in fuel and air to that port is a bad idea, unless you want a flame thrower.

I ran the advance line to the throttle body and the retard line to manifold vacuum on the plenum tonight. Fired up no problem cold so that must be it.
