I have a flexalite 16" 2000cfm S-blade. much quieter than the straight 6 blade fan that came with the car. just fits in the spot in front of the car as well.

I thought the resistor is used only on low setting, and is bypassed at high speed? Odd. I'll look more into it tomorrow, too hot out right now.Mtech1 v8 build thread - https://www.r3vlimited.com/board/sho...d.php?t=413205

Yeah, that makes sense, I should have measured clearance from the condenser to the front of the valance when I replaced my stock fan.

Odds are its not that, id bet money on it.
Check the harness ground, you already said the battery is good, probably dont have vacuum leaks since you put it all together. Did you get the correct valve cover to side of bellows breather with the small nipple coming off the side? Unplug the o2 sensor and see if the problem goes away by going into open loop.

Yeah harness ground is good, both are right by the battery. The only vacuum leak that could still be there is in the brake booster area as I didn't touch it, or possibly that check valve on the booster vacuum hose or the "L" bracket.
Valve cover came with the engine, gaskets came from autohausaz. Do you have a picture of this breather/nipple?Mtech1 v8 build thread - https://www.r3vlimited.com/board/sho...d.php?t=413205
