    Your right Jerry, it's not the cat.

    It's on to the timing marks.

    You had 11 - 14k on the engine rebuild, which I assume included a new timing belt, before all this. Why would the belt jump timing? the Blower? Tuning with the power card? Injectors? I'm so confused...?

    I'm probably exposing my limited knowledge of the car I'm driving by saying this. But in the old days working on my '66 Mustang, this would sound exactly like a vacuum leak.

    Is it possible that this is nothing but an old-school vacuum leak? Either around the intake or via a hose going to an accessory?

    You would think that, but we have looked all over the place and haven't found one yet.
    I have made up my mind to pull the SC/IC and return the car to stock, then hopefully it will be easier to find the problem if it still exists.
    Now I just gotta save the cash to have everything taken off and put back the way it was.

    Nope still sitting, Gary is supposed to come pick it up in the next week to try and figure out where the gremlin is hidden.
    I have almost run out a full tank of Gas just keeping the battery up...lol
    and the rotors are rusted, not too bad though.
