I'm curious to what was making the little (we will
call them ball bearing marks) in the heads and or cyl...
you tried 2 ignition set ups didnt you... so your down
to fuel... if it was bad fuel it would detonate and
could leave marks... plus run BAD... how old was the fuel
Hello, After I removed the heads, I found it was not dimples as we thought. We were looking in the cyls with a bore scope. I think we were seeing reflections off of the gooy stuff on the piston tops. Looked like a mixture of oil / gas goo. Wiped right off, piston looked like new. I have the engine all apart, and see nothing! No marks anywhere indicating anything hitting. Yes, I tried 2 ignition systems, no difference. Initial start was with the fuel in my tank. The tank was almost empty, so I put in 10 gals of 93 octane before I started the engine. Later, I hooked a hose directly to a 5 gal can of 110...NO difference. UNLESS, I washed the cyls down right from the get-go and caused my problems. Still hunting. Waiting now for the tech from 440Source to call me back. Thanks, Jeff

So are you somewhat carb savvy? I ask this because all along I kept thinking you had a stuck float or a dirty/worn or sticky needle & seat and wondered if you could tell the difference? I can't tell you how many times people I know who are very smart sometimes overlook the simplest things. Then when you mention the "grey goo of death"  I really think you washed and wiped the rings.

Could the rings be installed upside down causing a compression loss ?
Nope, checked that too...Thought that myself. Jeff

Hello all! I've So, I take it out for a test drive..NO power at all. I doubt if it would burn rubber! Seems like a slight miss out at light cruise.
I have taken out plugs. Might be a bit rich, Looked in chamber with a Snap-On bore scope, adjusted rockers ICE-EOI method 3 times Jeff
After reading all of your posts! IMO This is a bogus type thread You state above, you doubt if it will burn the tires 
The combo as listed should rock. I think your mocking Moparts.

Just a thought, blocked exhaust will cause the same problem. Old double wrapped pipes would sometimes buckle on the inside and not be visible on the outside - try running w/o exhaust if you had one on for your street test

Was a leak down and/or a compression test done before the engine was disassembled ?A leak down test would sure help with a direction to go,be it rings,valves or gasket issues.Leaking rings may not look bad to the eye.
he did a compression test , think it read 155psi ?
