I just know when i did my msd cut to lengths in the past I fixed a nisfire issue by re doing all the connections so clearly one or more of my crimps were lacking.

It is possible, but I had no issues with these before the h/c swap.Quote:

Maybe. I was pretty conscious not to pull on the wires when removing them. I don't feel like it has the type of misfire of a bad plug wire, it's not that obviously misfiring if it is. It is something I will consider though.Quote:

I appreciate it. Like I said before, if anyone wants to look at my scans they are more than welcome too.Quote:

U know when it comes down to it... its usually the opti. I just hate to blame it first.

If it is, I'm smashing it with a hammer. If a brand new $450 delco opti is bad right out of the box, I'm ls swapping it....and this time.... I mean it!Quote:

Well I went through this week fixing all the exhaust leaks. I really didn't know how bad the collectors were leaking. I can hear a lot less of what I thought was valve train noise when I accelerate. I'm sure this was one of the headers leaking. I ended up going with perceys aluminum seal 4 good gaskets, and using permatex copper high temp rtv just incase. I let it set for 24 hours.
It also started fine after being warmed up, but it occasionally did that prior too. I will do more scanning this weekend, fingers crossed. At least I am making improvements.
