Trying to start rebuilt engine. Gassing plugs

[hotford]

Update. Found that the exhaust cams were swapped. LH exhaust cam was on the RH head. Going to take a look today to see if there was any sign that the valves possibly hit the pistons. Engine has dish pistons as it was built for boost so fingers are crossed.


Did the cam # marking I gave you help you out?

Yes. It actually did help. Only difference is the fact that the cobra cams are labeled differently. Actually easier to under where they go, which is why I don’t understand how he mixed them up. [emoji2363]

Guys. I got the car put back together and it seems to be running pretty good. I think I’m going to swap in some new plugs in the next week or so and maybe some new coils. Thanks for all of your help.

With that being said, I did learn a lot about these engines that I didn’t know prior to this situation.
