t3 .63 to small, unless u don't want to rev it past 4000rpm.

also iridium plugs didn't last long in my car.
just stick a set of el xr6 ngk plugs(ZGR6B-11) and gap them to .9 or 1mm.

y did u choose a au head??

fill it up and see if that fixes it, my car seem to not like being below 1/4 of a tank even thou i have the pump as low as posible.

how much fuel pressure are u running and what reg are u running?

check to see if the vac line hasent come of the reg

check vac line to map sensor.

have u eva had it at 1/2 tank or below since that 044 has been in?
