ok, that's what i was wondering. I still haven't found a cause for the miss while i'm driving it so I want to check out the timing chain & the cam currently in it. The guy I bought the car from has no idea what cam is in the engine so I'm thinking the problem may lie there. Thanks guys.
It's unlikely your miss is caused by your cam. More likely ignition or fuel related. If the timing is steady, the chain is probably good. I'd do more diagnosing before you start pulling things apart.
