Well, recently when I started my car, It ran very choppy. whenever i let go of the gas, it would die out instantly, but now that has progressed and passed. I've taken a compression test and my 1st and 2cd cylinders get compression, but my 3rd and 4th do not. I have no idea why it would not get compression and I'm stumped. I would appreciate some help on it. Thanks.

Sounds like it's blown a head gasket between cylinders 3 and 4. Get any smokey when you run the car?

also, do you guys think it's possible to swap a 350 Boss into my 82 Accord? I have an extra 350 boss that needs heads done and it's complete. Just wondering if I you guys think it's also possible to do that.

Hell yes, you'll have to probably build a bigger tunnel for the transmission and drive shaft, etc. Damnit I wish I could find the 82 Accord Pro Street drag car that someone built. It's exactly what you would do.

I remember they added a full custom 2x3 steel chassis under it.

Yea me too (drive the car, not hippy chix), Even though it may be a ford motor. One of the file names said 377, which is ford I believe. I wasn't even thinking about it being tagged and registered lol, imagine driving that shit on the streets. Pulling up next to rice-boy civics 'n such.
