Engine running smoothly?

Hi all,

I'm about to take the plunge and use BM3 Stage 1 to give my 235 some extra power, but before I do that I took a log to make sure everything looked good. While looking at the log, I realize I have absolutely no idea what I'm looking at

Would anyone mind taking a look and making sure everything looks good on the stock motor before I flash the tune? Here is the log with a 2nd and 3rd gear pull: https://www.bootmod3.net/log?id=5f90...90c62a169fae33

Thanks!

Timing looks pretty good, I'd try the tune and see how it runs. If anything a fresh set of spark plugs wouldn't hurt now or later.

if they've been on there for a while(25-40k) they will prob became a weak point (idle issues/misfires) once you add power from tune.
