Re: LeRoar is on the road again!

[Richard Kinsley <leroar.kinsley058@xxxxxxxxx>]

Yep I do have some good guys around here to help when needed. And I'm pretty needy :-)

And yes it feels great to be back on the road.  The car is running best ever! I swear it's even smoother now with the 284 deg cam than with the 264deg cam. 

I did have an issue in that it started smoking badly and it looked like oil smoke. However about halfway through the parade and after quite a few 7,000 rpm blips for the crowd it quit smoking? It was both banks. I wonder if I got something in the exhaust pipes that burned off? I'm going to check the head torque and headers again. The headers will probably loosen after running awhile. They did before. I'll be checking the compression to see what it is now.

Anyway the parade today was the best ever. The car staying practically cold the whole time and loved the revs. Before I didn't dare rev it or it'd start loading up and overheat in a flash. So the heads and cam are a success!!  Gary P said it would probably like 7500rpm and he's right.
