snowhite and i rolled up to QCR yesterday. pull in, drop the air pressure, and head off to the lanes. first & second gear up smoke, third hooked like a bitch and i was off. i get about 3/4 down and white smoke starts pouring in thru the shifter area. look back and white smoke is everywhere behind. motor soon stopped running. 🤮 12.13@123 got towed back, oil and antifreeze everywhere. total mess. 123 made me super-happy tho. ---

no, no neon for me. my thoughts so far; 1. hope its just a head gasket, fix it, and continue on 2. just yank everything, get a 306/331, put the other shit back on 3. sell my blower, gut the entire car, and build 306/331 w/ turbo, auto, fuel system, etc.
