Short vid of my car

Is in the link on my sig, it's a crappy video because the car is in a bog until right as I go by the camera, but it was done with about a 2,000 rpm clutch drop, slide, and the 2.79's and open. With the new 3.50's it's much quicker, and once the 4.11's are in, I hope to have the bog pretty much cured. The pics are old and I'll get some updated stuff this spring. THe motor pic is of the old motor which blew up! [img]/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_lol.gif[/img]

One more thing, is that puff of smoke as I shift normal? Or what is causing it? It doesn't burn a drop of oil in 800 miles, if it uses oil it doesn't show on the dipstick.[img]/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_confused.gif[/img]

do you have valve seals on your exhaust valves? I seem to remember the discussion including puffs of smoke when shifting with no exhaust valve seals.

Puff of smoke when you shifted could have been when you jumped on the throttle and had a little too large shot of accelerator pump... My pickup did that before I changed the accel pump cams and then no more puff and throttle response was better afterwards.

Ya, I'm running exhaust seals. And that post on seals is by one of my good friends who I'm helping right now. He's haveing lots of problems.[img]/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_frown.gif[/img] And thanks for the idea, it very well could be gas, thought it looked more blue, but it could be gas, I think I already put the double pumper on there by the time that vid was taken.
