you and me both my friend. Baffled, not even sure what it could be. Maybe pull the plugs again and take another look. Run a leakdown too just for giggles.

This post is 2 fold.......

First - Car looks great Jody. Wheels look killer - I agree like the silver better. The new valve covers look great also.

Second Sorry to hear about the smoking again. That sucks big time - no pun intended. Hopefully it is nothing major.

Car does look amazing Jody. Nice job

Brent

Jody,

The car looks killer. It's really making you work, but you're good at hanging in there and making it come together. We all see what it takes from builds like yours and it better prepares us for the little battles along the way. Enjoy the 'rita!

The car looks awesome, Jody. I'd love to check it out sometime. It's too bad about the smoking though. And don't worry. I won't be calling the air resources board about your smoking vehicle, so they won't be offering you the $500 for it so they can crush it. But Charley might.
