    Got it all together last night and drove it a bit. Seems to be running OK with the 3.3 pulley and it starts to misfire when I go above 4.5k rpm but I believe that is because I left the stock .60 gap on the NGK TR55's, I will pull them out this weekend and gap to around .40.

    Thanks for all of the encouragement over the past few weeks everyone!

    Changed out the lifters Tuesday night and found the bad lifter right away you could shake the lifter and hear it clank change the whole set any ways with LS7 lifters again. I was only able to run the car for 60 seconds as the oil was a bit milky after ripping the top end apart. Yesterday I changed the band clamp on the cross over as it was leaking and I hope that fixes the front o2 low volt code, but I doubt it. I scanned it with torque and saw 0.0v up to 0.98v and it sat around 0.10 idle. It may have something to do with the RICH base tune I have. Example: If I dont let the car warm up for 1-3 minutes and press the gas, it will stall out (its not the MAF) the commanded afr according to torque is 11.3 but at idle the WB reads 14.4-15.2

    meeeeehhhhhhhhhh Shoulda bought a V8
