If you have a 1g style adjustable CAS you should also check base timing with a timing light to make sure it's 5* BTDC. Several threads on how to do this by grounding timing through link. You'll need the lower timing cover on for this part.

Edit: or use this method if you dont want to set timing with the lower cover: http://www.dsmtuners.com/threads/how...-cover.312350/

This car is using a 1997cas.... (6bolt block / 2ghead combo) but will read up on it and hopefully get this checked this coming weekend.
