> Yesterday Jason helped me keep the car running while I made some adjustments and we got it running suitable to test. We ran it about 1 and 1/4 hours. It is dripping some water out of the pass side collector and needs lots of advance to run decent. Vacuum is better but only about 12" and not real steady. It smokes mostly from the pass side when revving it and then tapers off to almost equal on both sides but not extreme. It has an H pipe so that accounts for it on both sides.

That head is the same one every time regardless of which side it's on. IE: the problem follows the head and is in that chamber. It appears there is water above the intake valve. The bolt holes for the headers are not an issue. They just need to be sealed very well.
