check plugs, cap, rotor, motor mount, axles.

backfire makes me think ignition issue, but if you had a mount going then the motor torqued hard enough it could've busted the mount that was already bad.

new plugs new rotor button and cap mounts r original so im guessinng mounts it runs fine only backfired then now it just vibrates when i get near certain rpms other than that it runs fine??

if it vibrates at certain rpm then it's probably mount or axle related since it happens at a certain rpm.

yeah the motor is sitting low on the driver side cv axle boot is like 1/2 cm. from the frame!!

so the main question is, what did it run even backing out of it

i ran 14.2 shitty run if it wasnt backfiring and i didnt let out i would have run under 13 which is still slow as hell

well i figured out the complete problem today!!

being lazy me i let a shop change my upper driver side mount well they only put one bolt into the side of the block and there was so much tork it rip it off the block and took a good chunk out of my block so i got screwed on that end!! so now theres only two bolts in that mount!! shitty as hell!!

see if a plug wire may have popped off! that would explain the back fires and the vibration. also could be a stressed axel seperation..
