Flashing light (ses) is a misfire brotha!
If you can get to an autozone they will read your codes for free, get them and get back to us.

WOW I never heard of this, but maybe it is your fuel injectors ( like one going out while under load?)
Add some fuel injector cleaner, a coilpack?
How many miles?

POP goes the spark plug!

Sounds like you have a bad plug.

that is an o2 sensor heat code. Misfire will cause the light to flash like said before. Never have I seen one flash from the oxygen sensors, and I have run dyno time on a lot of cars. That is from a front o2 sensor, so you may have a fouled out one that is just not getting the heat it needs. As for the flashing code. You probably won't get one unless you data log it with EFI Live or something. Also can't help but notice that you have changed out your wires from stock to MSD's. I would check your plugs and possibly get some stock LS2 wires and send those MSD's packing if it still doesnt clear up from the plug check/change. My guess if it is a coil pack causing it it will show up as #7.
