All better...

Sorry for the repeat thread...but I think it is worth it.

Found the misfire.
It was a HUGE problem.
Pushrods = Too long.

Idle is set at 1150 RPM's. WAY too high. When I get a chance...I will drop it to about 1000 RPM's.

Whoops....I was hanging the valves using the pushrods on the right....
Bet that created a problem.

Re: All better...

Limiter is going to be at 6750.
Shifting should be right at 6650.
