Re: It simply won't run right...

Ok holllllly shit, first off, get me some compression numbers because that will mostly likely verify what I'm about to say. Running 87 on a modded DSM is a VERY bad idea, you'll knock like crazy and risk the chances of either melting a piston, or what I think happened to you, burnt valve. With the plugs burnt off like that and your car not running worth a shit, you most likely burnt valves 1 and 4. I would still like some compression numbers, because that should tell you if the valves are burnt or not.

Edit: A leakdown test would be the best thing because then you'll know where the air is escaping, but a compression tester is much easier to come by and use, so just get me some numbers.
