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

Maybe some day my stupid cable company will offer cable Internet in my area. Untill then, I'll just have to keep setting out the vids, lol.
Either way, glad ya found your problem. When do you plan on getting some track time????
As for idleing, 1150 ain't bad, lol. If you've got a big lift cam, then you'll have to allow it to idle a little bit fast, lol, or you'll forever more be holding your foot on the gas to keep it running, lol.

Not quite 5 megs if you want to right click save as.
Idle is high for the cam actually. Should be lower, but not by a ton.

Thanks!!
Took her out today for the first drive.
It has been a while...but man does she pull hard. Got a little squirly on me at about 3500 in 2nd gear.
Didn't take it above 4200 or so...but it feels VERY strong from 2500 to that.
