I would reexamine the cam timing.

Cam timing........
Quote:
Ismoto, You could not install new timing chains without disrupting the cam timing setting. The cam setting is so sensitive that a very slight movement of the cam or sprocket could cause irratic engine performance. As previously mentioned, check your cam timing. Tony |

As said above, cam timing must be reset.
