It does start like a frickin pig but that is only when the block is cold. After the block is warm she runs fine.

You cant just slap in some rings and call it good. What caused the ring issue before will most likely cause it again.

True, but the problem should be fixed now. The old fpr was rising 2-1 instead of 1-1. I drove it like this for a week and tuned it again with a new fpr. What really gets me is the first fuel pressure reg I put in. It is a brand new Aeromotive, it was failing at first, it magically started working on the dyno and failed again about 25 miles after.
