Need help! Don't know what to do?
I finished my motor about two weeks ago and I've had issues with it. When I first started the motor it run real bad(sputtering, dying, etc). So I checked my spark plugs and the #3 plug had no kind of carbon at all(bad injector), the other 3 seemed fine. So I replaced my injectors with a friends stock snd still it run like ****. Next, I hooked up a timing light to make sure the sparks were there and they were except for #4. Then I noticed that only cylinders 1 and 2 were hot on my dc ss headers, 3 and 4 I could touch with my fingers. I freakin don't know what to do. Someone please help me this problem.

Ok here's the setup:
I just wanted to share with you guys what my project has been for the last few months. First of all I have 92 GS-R that had 170,000 miles on it. It ran pretty good, 15.3 till the day I took it apart. I decided to tear the whole motor apart and rebuild myself. To make it easier I'll just list the things I have.
1.PP'ed Type R head and reworked combustion chamber
2.Type R valves and valvetrain with Portflow inner springs and Crower Ti retainers
3.Crower 63401 and 63403 cams and adjustable cam gears
4.Port matched Type R intake manifold, RC 64mm tb and 3in custom ceramic coated cold air intake
5.New cap and rotor, Magnecore wires, JDM NGK BKR7E-N-11 plugs and Optima battery
6.97-up Prelude 290CC injectors, B&M regulator and gauge
7.Civic Type R pistons and rings .25, stock rods with ARP rod bolts
8.Balanced bottom end (bottom end was perfect like most Hondas nothing to balance) with micropolished crank, all new bearings, gaskets, seals, Spoon oil pump, Type R flywheel
9.JDM SS DC 4-1 header, 2.5in Carsound cat and SS RSR exhaust
10.Spoon radiator cap, thermostat and thermo switch
11.Basically every oem part that was needed to be changed was changed.

Remove and clean both plugs that arent firing. Put your old plug wires back on and try again. Sometimes magnecore wires have a problem sticking to the plug correctly.
