Problem: cruising down the interstate smooth as butter all of a sudden the engine starts missing. like a switch was thrown.

What I've done:
New NGK TR55GP plugs, all eight
New fuel injectors (Accel 24#, all eight)
New fuel regulator (check vacuum tube for gas and smell - none detected)
New ICM
Found bad O2 sensor left bank - replaced
Replaced Optispark with one barely used one on hand

Checked for spark using inductive timing light, all show good light
Checked wires for proper routing after plug change, multiple times
Checked for spark leakage at night; dry and misting with water, no visible leakage

Using a laser thermometer read the follow readings:
1 395F 2 506F
3 360F 4 740F
5 355F 6 900F
7 645F 8 920F
Temperature was read on the header tube just after the mounting flange. Engine idling with coolant temperature at operating temp. 55 degrees outside

Compression (didn't get to right bank)
1 150
3 180
5 180
7 180

Mainly need to solve the miss but also curious about the varying exhaust temperatures. Have datalog (Scan9495 and audio recording of exhaust and engine)
