Go stock manifolds, the Lt's may be flowing too freely screwing with your O2 readings and or the pipe from the smog pump to the h MUST be intact. Look at the gauranted to pass stuff at Canadian tire it my drop your numbers...fill the tank run it through then fill her up again and bring it to the test depot HOT..I mean normal running temp of at least 20-30minutes running time.
