why are you running an open manifold in the first place? is it carb or fuel injected?
the only time i have ever had flames coming out an open manifold was on the derby cars.....

timing is the only reason i believe you should be seeing flames. unless you are hammering on the gas with an open header, which i heard is bad for the valves? i dunno, check the timing, 6 degrees before top dead center on that motor.

no exhaust manifold or header is a big no no, it can hurt the valves if its ran to long

Parker, Im not worried about the exhaust valves really... These carbed 2.2L's are Junk, It didn't run long, My V8's almost done ... Few more weeks, hahaha, Finally.
I'll let you's know whats up by the weekend
