Re: running really rough

Did you verify the firing order? 1-8-4-3-6-5-7-2 CW

And where's your timing? Probably something simple if the engine is known good.

Re: running really rough

Definitly sounds like a timing issue. Or your firing order like mentioned above. Just a couple other simple things to check. Air filter, make sure both Injectors are hooked up, go through the engine bay and make sure everything is plugged in.
