exhaust is good. no leaks. had a whole new one made for it after I dropped the 5.9 in.

yeah, I think that is the only thing left it can be is the pickup, but I hate to throw more parts at it till I can "prove" something.

I see I can get a "new" distributor for 70 bucks vs 24 for just the pickup. If I go that route, I might do that instead of just a part.
