> 1. get the valve seals fixed(hopefully hats the problem) 2.i dont know why u would have problems with the pcv system since pewters ss car never had that issue. Im thinking there are problems esle where hopefully its the valve seals. 3. put it on the dyno 3 pulls and u should have ur car done. Or 3 passes down the strip should do it.

pewter didnt have that lq9 block, im just hoping its something like the pcv, the car just got together it would suck real bad to have to take it apart again, it had smoking issues while in quik’s truck w/ his old cam also

yea your most likely right, but im hoping otherwise and yes there will be a ton of time that goes into tuning this car trust me
