Viper458, Checked all the screws on the engine, they are all as tight as I could make them.

Thanks for the help!!
Does this include taking the pull starter OFF and checking the backing plate screws? Over tightening screws can all so warp something. You want them good and snug but not over tightened as these things have small screws.

yeah not to mention they are threading into aluminum. be very careful not to strip them out. also did you check your exhaust gasket? it might have torn when/if you took your header off. i believe for the water drop test it should be there for like 2 seconds. but like you said if its barely warm to the touch then yeah something isnt right about your settings
