Default CEL 71 and 73, Random missfire. Need to smog in 7 days! help

heya. Well it seems i've fixed one CEL after another after I swapped a stock motor back into my civic. I am now getting codes 71 and 73 after about an hour of driving. I recently fixed knock sensor, o2 sensor, and some other stuff that seems never ending. My buddy told me to try new spark plugs and spark plug wires and see if that helps. any other ideas? What are the chances of some bottom end damage? Thanks everyone. -Jeff
