Glowing headers

Relax dude, just building a consensus, I want to try 1 thing at a time to see if 1 thing would be a cure. That would be highly informative,to me, and to the next guy who might experience the same issue. Plus save me on gasket/s. I appreciate all who try and help, I`m not ignoring anybody. This time around I`m not going to panic, if I detect the slightest glow, I`m shutting it down and installing the jets. Unless these site builders reply and say NO-NO-NO-JET IT FIRST, I`ll jet it first.
thanks

LOL, If I was any more relaxed I'd fall asleep . You really need to just go do what you are going to do because there will NOT be any new news posted on this topic, and nothing is going to change the fact that it is too lean and will not get richer with more timing . I have been building cars and engines and fine tuning them for 40 years, but it sounds like you just want to experiment so go ahead . It's not my engine so I really couldn't care less if you score a piston or have some other problem or not . Running a new engine slightly rich will never, ever, hurt it, however, running one slightly lean definitely can, it's that simple . Anyone that says otherwise has absolutely no idea what they are talking about . This ain't rocket science.
