I kinda figured. It has never felt right since the build. The ones I have pulled were so oil and gas fouled I don't know how it ran.That’s your sick hole. For what ever reason. Or you could have more.
I had a set of deep reach plug Dart heads I bought from a friend. I tore them down and he had standard reach taper plugs in them. Sent off to have fresher up and I did some port work on them never looking at the holes for the plugs. I put the same part number plug back in it. Car ran a bit off and did not respond to timing/tuning. Go figure.
I found the problem at the track and wanted to use the plug ratchet on my forehead. Ugh what a dumbass.
Had a spare set of plugs in the trailer from another engine. They were a touch cold but man that car picked up.
