As far as temps the Ex-Techs seem to run around 185 to 200 at race tune.

How does the rod/crank feel at TDC. sounds like that mey be where the problem is.

Good luck to you. Remeber on the box = no load which means it is easier to unload a fat bottom. On the ground under a load it will flame if to fat on the LSN..
Great advice. I think I have narrowed it down to 3 different things.

1. The low speed needle to fat. I will start with this one leaning it 1 hour at a time.

2. Drivetrain problem. Bearing or gears may be bad causing it to bind. I would have to pull all 3 diffs to inspect.

3. Clutch shoes grabbing on the fly wheel or rubbing the bell. Its brand new so I don't think this is it but will check as a last resort.

Does it make sense that it ran perfect last week at the settings I have right now, however due to the engine starting to break in even more now those settings are to fat on the LSN. If this is the case I would bet that this is the prob.
