Default Re: New Project showed up today......

Update............Seems that as Kevin was driving the car it seemed to be smoking more and more.......I thought it was the valve seals .........so.......when we started to check it out and after pulling the PCV hose and valve and starting the engine.........It was obvious that by the blow-by coming out the valve cover there were so other issues at play here.......This motor was built a few years ago but it didn't have that many miles on it........Just some drag strip miles.........Anyhow.....we were planning on doing a LS swap in the near future ....anyhow........here's what we found after pulling the engine out.....None of the wrist pin retainer rings were put in by the engine shop that went thru the engine and the wrist pin decided to take a "Walk"........Darn.........Gonna get it sleeved and put back together till the LS shows up......
