All,
I just rebuilt my 416 - Had the head redone at the machine shop down the road. I have a new 10:1 87mm wiseco piston, and now on startup, we have a few issues....
1) Smoking white and blue - I know that this is normal until the rings are seated fully, but still looks like way too much smoke even for burn-in. Checked the valve clearences on my hotcam stage 2, I am set at .005" on intake and .006" on exhaust.
2) Hard Starting - Turns over - sounds like a spark issue, and might be one, but it then starts rough after about 15 revolutions are made.
3) Timing is dead on - Checked and re-checked last night.
4) I am only running 91 octaine on this
I think that should be about it. I will check in here and answer any questions for ya, please help.
Thanks
Eric
