i figured out what it was... well it seems that my throttle cable bracket was about 1 mm too short... so it had my car @ open throttle....went and picked up a slightly longer throttle cable bracket and my problem was solved... but now i think i've a blown headgasket.... im going to do a real follow up tomorrow and check every thing out again....
