M104 no power

I will try to make this brief. I had oil in my spark plug wells which caused an occasional miss. Decided to change out the o-ring gaskets (6) and valve cover gasket.

Took out oil soaked spark plugs... oil in wells seeped into the cylinders..put a little sea foam in there and put everything back together... had a bit of a hard time starting, but it did and got the blue smoke out of the exhaust... after that I decided to take it for a run.

In neutral the engine performed flawlessly and will rev to 4000 rpm before being limited... however in drive, there is no power, tough to get going.... I took it for a spin on the highway, and could never get past 65mph.

I have new fuel pumps and filter.

Don't know if I have to much oil in the gas now or what. Any suggestions appreciated.
