Default Engine runs but only on 6 cylinders

I fixed all of the fuel leaks (o rings) on the TPI, so then I tried to break the cam in. I am not firing two cylinders and it's around 2K at idle. So I think that I have a massive vacuum leak and maybe a problem with the injectors or valve lash.

The plugs and wires are good and getting spark, so I'll check the preload first on the non-firing cylinders.

As for the vacuum leak, I'll have to track it down.

At least she runs though. :)
