Well after the machinist has checked everything from top to bottom on the heads and after careful inspection of the lifter bore, I swapped sides of the engine with the heads and got a used cam and lifter set with 5000 miles on it from a good friend, installed the cam and lifters ( matched to the lobes that they came from) with LUCAS cam lube and Valeline 20w-50w oil. When the engine fired up it started poping through the exhaust again so I shut it down waited a few minutes and fired it up again and the popping was not as bad but still there. Shut it down again, then fired it up after about 10 mins. and the popping was gone and the engine is running great. So I have not found out a damn thing, but my engine is running good with no issues. The used cam is a Lunati voodoo series and I got it CHEAP. Anyways I'm going to the track to see how it runs and will check back later. Thanks for everyones help and opinions as they are greatly appreciated, Later Kirk...
