    ^This. I had a burnt spark plug wire once, and it made the car I had at the time run rough and vibrate like a son of a bitch.

    it has white leather? the 30 on a grey seat is just to commemorate the 30th year, but its not a 30th special edition. and like fast bird said change out all the burned plug wires and rule that out.

    Ahh I see. Well then its not a 30th Ann. Lol. I went ahead and started looking over the wiring harness and found some fun stuff. A few melted wires and connectors and random wires either ripped or cut. So I pulled the engine/trans harness out to the side to go through it. Alot of stuff was done halfa$$ on this I'm almost tempted to pull the motor tear it down and start over making sure stuff is right.

    That is most likely where you'll end up. I bought a half finished project three years ago, and after fighting it for 3 years, it's now completely apart in my garage getting the build done that it should of had from the get go.

    If you end up needing a neutral balanced flywheel hit me up I have one for sale for $150 (it's a chromolly neutral balanced flywheel) I bought it brand new and ended up not needing it so its just sitting I've been trying to get rid of it for a while but everyone I talk to either end up just leaving me hanging or don't reply when I ask them if they still want it

    Well got the heads off and started looking around. Heads are 643's and Appear stock. Shortbock was recently done it still has pretty clean cylinders with cross hatching or whatever. Half the push rods are trick flow half are stock. Intake has a chunk missing next to a bolt hole. Opti was cracked. All but one header bolt was finger tight. Everything had just rtv poured on it.. going to pull the cam to see what that bad boy is next.

    Might be switching around my game plan with this thing.
