First thing that comes to mind is the titanium valves are causing you problems. Seems overkill for a small block with a 7k chip. If it doesn't have shaft mounted rockers, that's a must. I'd say the titanium valves warrant setting the valves HOT. Who knows what happens at road racing temps. I'm just throwing things out there. Me, I'd put a less radical combo in it or let Ron go through the entire engine.
