Default 98 civic lsv swap. Misfire above 3k rpm CEL code 8

Yesterday I was drivin my 98 coupe and it would start braking up bad at 3k or higher, at one point the car even turned off. It's a b18a1 block with a b16 head. I've had codes 6 9 17 and 21 since I've had the car so I know this code 8 is new. Which is TDC sensor ? Correct me if I'm wrong. Any one know how to fix this ?

You need to fix all your codes. TDC code is dizzy. Are you running obd1 ecu?

Check your cel codes. Fix them and also check your timing because you might have jumped a tooth or two!

Reset ECU to see which codes repeat. Fix ALL CEL codes that repeat and go from there.

The ecu is a p72, but the same codes come up on a p28 as well. Also just started my car and ran codes again and code 4 popped up as well.
