Valve float is valves launching off the nose staying open too long or bouncing multiple times off the seats due to lack of closing control both causing a loss of cylinder pressure, compression is a static measurement....cylinder pressure is dynamic.
Otter,
Did you ever get the cam / motor squared away? I put a hot cam in my ls1 and it lost power too...
Headers and dyno tune. Can you call me on this?
