I'm almost done... but I need some help

I can usually find the problem looking, digging around, but I don't know a whole about trouble shooting on the 92 z32 n/a.

A little about the car and what I did to it. I got the not running, did a compression check, front to back D side, 35, 148, 155 & pass side 0, 0, 220 (water). So I took the heads off, the driver side was in okay shape , had the cut the head & valve job. Pass side I had to replace it with a good head, over .25 warped.

Know I just got the motor back together after 8 weeks or so with new timing belt and plugs, I found the vacuum diagram and made sure that is all right. Found a ground (only 2?) that I missed. Heres the thing, It starts and dies, If I step on the gas it runs, but if its at 2.5k or less, it will start dying,(sounds like it's missing no fire running on 3 cylinders?) and if I let off the gas and hit the gas (or give it more gas) even a little its runs good (hits on all 6) til it gets to the RPMs form idle -2.5k. I can get the RPMs up to 3k+ and it runs fine. Last but not least, no eng. light

What do I try next... Thank you form turboZ87.300

Did you check the timing?

The timing belt is on the $$$. All dots are inline, & the belt has lines that line up with the dots. The only thing I don't know how to check is the timing with the CAS
