What gap are you running on your plugs?
Yeah its a vase tune. Its stupid rich right now because my boost controller will only allow 13 psi LOL.
Its defense Not dialed in but it shouldn't be acting up like this either way.
Plugs I believe are. .032

How many RPM's is the happening at.... valve float is a scary thing. I think you can get some valve springs from ZZP, but you might as well do an engine build if you are putting valve springs in.

It was only happening on my 2-3 shift after 6600 RPM's. My original shift point was 7000 I've been lowering it and lowering it and it's happening at 6500. But Since I put this new tune on it doesn't seem to matter where in the RPM range it's happening at... Just flashes whenever I get on it now... Engine is built apart from springs and sleeves.
