I just wanted to revive this topic to let you guys know I think we have it narrowed down to the valve lash. We checked the compression while it was running, but only did this on one cylinder. I was talking to my boss yesterday who used to be the head guy on an Indy car pit crew and he told me to check the valve lash. He said if only a couple valves were staying open it would cause vacuum problems. This has been one of my concerns ever since we got the car back together because we really kinda guessed at setting the rockers so I'm betting this is the problem. I will update this as soon as I know for sure.
Thanks for all the help guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
