first and for most, i'd like to apologize to be a troller on this forum. there's not much i have to give cause everything is already available to all users. i was able to complete my whole swap by my self with the help of this forum and the search function. unfortunately i was unable to find a problem similar to mine. the car is able to idle and drive normally. it also pulls very hard. the sound appears to be comming from the #1 runner. i used a stethiscope and it seems to be loudest there. its not coming from the t-stat housing.

in this video
idle = 950
timing = +20*
afr = 13.5 - 14.5 via innovate lc-1 with db gauge
temp = 65* c
bcpr6es spark plug gap = .8
everything is pretty much stock.

i borrowed a friends timing light just in case mines defective. and the timing is dead on at +20. im using the loop near the igniter for the timing light's reference. checked spark plugs and they still look new. im guessing no ones has a problem like this before. it almost sounds like a laser lol
