Any suggestions
My father has a 92'. He put a set of trick flow heads, an upgraded cam, plugs, wires, distributor. It ran great for about three days. Now when it starts it'll run great for about 5 minutes. Then it starts backfiring, an missing, an the check engine light comes on. Its giving out a code 36. We changed the plugs an wires(4 of the wires were melted on the exhaust headers) but problem still exist.

I have seen something like this before. Make sure no other wires or bundles are even close to the headers in front or behind
I had this happen with my first vette after I changed the heads and again on our boat when the zip tie broke and the ignition bundle fell on the exhaust manifold.
Good luck

Also check connector/terminals and harness to opti. Some brands of optis seem to have less trouble then others IMO
