low budget bracket racing blues

A few ?
Is the black stuff flakes or a kinda pasty stuff?
Aluminum wear can make black pasty stuff and is normal wear of the aluminum fins in the converter.

Yes...pasty.there also were a few flakes on top of the filter...very few. I'm positive the thing SHOULD be gone through,but I'd like to get a few more races outta it if possible. I'm not really all that hard on this stuff...maybe these "band-aids " will get me throught.
I'm trying to achieve consistentsy and durability. Its 95% stock stuff...and with the 3.23's its only turning 4700 rpms going through the traps (1/8 mile) . Its also just a low compression 76 360 (90% stock) in front of it. It sounds lame,but crammed into a 79 colt it really is kinda fun!

I certainly do thank you for sharing your knowledge!
