Yes, it took a bunch of troubleshooting and became a lesson in humility, but the HONDA IS RUNNING.
It runs smooth as silk, now, tons of power, trans shifts nicely, yadda yadda yadda.
Problem? Oh, the SPARK PLUG WIRES WERE REVERSED on 2 and 3.
No idea how we did that. Or how we missed it. But it’s fixed. And I’d rather be lucky than good anyday. Just goes to show you process of elimination DOES work.
