    Good luck finding the problems. Hope they are small and easily fixable. Hope to see you at the show.

    What sucks is with the H-Pipe I can't tell which side the smoke is coming from. I removed a valve cover and found my Poly-Lock came off #7 and threw the intake Rocker right off. I put it back on and the compression was 150 lbs ... It is running but smoking bad ... water vapor. Hopefully it is just the intake leaking when I put it on the other day after changing the cam.

    Earl ... Not gonna make the show. I'm getting really tired of the Adjustable rockers unadjusting and the poly-locks not holding so I am having a set of 87+ 5.0 heads built for me with pedestal rockers and springs to handle my new cam .... Should have it back together next week ... but not this weekend :(

    There is another big show in Commerce next weekend ... Maybe I can make that one.

    Dan; understand. Are you going to go and be a sightseer? If I go, I probably won't enter the show.
