Other than changing the oil, what else should I keep an eye on?? woohoo! i drove my car for a good 13 miles before i hit 15 psi. no smoke nothing. just the timing is off. i had a new clutch so i didn’t like floor it or anything. i just accel’d then decel’d and aceel’d and decel’d again at all different rpm’s. ---

GT42R still? I am so sorry I was unable to get back to you. You caught me in the middle of moving and on vacation ☹ Who built the heads to screw up the cams like that? Nice find but man you could have spent a LONG ass time to find that. Who woulda thought? ---

We just kept narrowing down the cause and we were sitting there and noticed the cam timing marks and I suggested he check the timing. He compared his old heads to the new and realized it was reversed. ---
