3.0 just replaced head gaskets. Checked all sensors to make sure they were plugged in. And I rechecked spark plug wires and any grounds

Double check to make sure the vacuum lines are routed correctly.

I haven't worked on the 3.0 much but could the crank/cam gear not be synced? So when the crank is at TDC is the Cam at the proper location? I'm thinking that you may be off a tooth with the timing chain...

It wont rev past 1500 or you cant drive it past that?
Dr.Maxwe001 – well i have a 15 gal compressor now and if I gett he 60  and then use the 15 as a reserve that wil give me 75 gal  thats close to 80 isnt it ?
