Beautiful car. It makes just over 700 RWHP. The owner was having some issues so he let me have it for practically nothing. [Big Grin]

Not sure yet. James Bond style smoke screen from the exhaust... possibly a damaged valve seal. I'm dropping it off at AED today.

Not long. Definitely caught early. That was the whole point with the trailer.

An out of state shop did the work on the heads and the most logical culprit would be a valve seal. The car runs perfectly.

Ouch. On the brighter side, at least it was caught early and minimized any risk of damage. I don't even want to imagine a 300 mile cruise with no oil in a brand new motor.

Valve seal was my first assumption as well. Sucks that all this time and money was put into this car and it's gotta do this on its first trip. I'm glad it was caught in time before the motor got any damage done to it..
