Thanks Plums.

My exhaust is a 4 into 1 collector and then Cat, Muffler and then hot dog resonator at the back (I have a dual underbody system). I dont have any restrictor plate on it yet so "I think" it might be ok. But you never know.

Fuel is new.

Plugs are what came with the engine which is a second hand 50,000klms VY Series 2 Commodore engine - so history is relatively unknown.

I will do the leads today and then if that fails then the plugs. New plugs is probably a good idea anyway regardless of how its running.

Thanks for the tips I'll kepp "plugging" away.

P.S. Any Melbourne Cobra owners know a good "mobile" LS1 tuner I could pay to come and have look if I get stuck?.
