OK, long story short.

Rocker Arm stoppers=installed.

Went out to do LSD break in, and the car sounds like a cammed LS1. Very choppy. After gaining confidence in the LSD install, i tried doing a full throttle 2nd gear pull. I noticed that the car feels alot slower (as i noticed before, but my feelings were confirmed). Is this a symptom of me being a dumbass and not installing the RAS correctly or is this something else? please help, i think tomorrow i will get an in/lb torque wrench and take the RAS out so i can re-install the cams and hopefully get everything back to normal.

u installed ur RAS incorrectly. lift up the cover and check where u put the washers and ras itself. i did the same mistake, we were lucky we caught it before we sealed the valve cover. good luck

ok, so i checked agian, i was pretty sure there is no way in hell anyone is dumb enough to put the RAS in wrong. As it turns out, i was running on 3 cyl, one of my coil packs came loose. I swapped 1 and 3 because 3 didnt seem to wanna plug in to the #3 plug on the harness...everything is cool now
