I repaired the ring gear and put in a new set of spark plugs. I'm also going to replace the headers with good old cast iron manifolds. The headers keep setting the plug wires on fire. I've come to realize that any header related horsepower gain is lost when I start losing cylinders... 

Here is why i had starting trouble last weekend, my ring gear had a stripped section. I was able to remove it from the flywheel and replace it 

sorry about the quality, this is a frame capture from the movie below. the best frame in my opinion. I'm not sure how I got airtime there but i'm glad theres evidence.
