also this is running untuned 19lb 4.6 injectors

and btw i have a set of 24lb injectors with an 80mm MAF calibrated for them if anyone wants them i didnt want to change over my injector connectors to make them work and im not planning anything drastic just stock 5.4 with stage 2 cams for now so i dont really need em and might as well recoup some of the money ill be spending on the dyno so if anyone wants em shoot me an offer also a set of PI cams and a NPI aluminum cross over intake if anyone knows of someone that needs one
tappy tappy is probably a sticky lash adjuster or sticky valve or crank tapping the scrapers.

toss in some lucas oil treatment and see what happens. LMK as it's a debugging step
