Big Problems with New 408 +PICS
What exactly was done to the block? Be specific. The hone pattern looks rough to me. It should be much smoother. What was the end gap set to on #7? Were the heads checked and corrected or run out of the box? Were the heads re-torqued? What does the #7 intake lobe on the cam and base of the lifter look like? When exactly did it start to smoke? Has it always done that? Or did it start abruptly one time while driving? Any signs of coolant seaping out between the heads and block on either side? What do the other chambers look like?
