ok the guy just called me back..
he said i need a breather box or to put stock valve covers back on there, to replace the map sensor cuz it could have been damaged, an that i have a leak on my tb.
that if the compression keeps coming out to take it back...
does this sound correct??
an he says that i have a wrong temp sensor

Id probably hook up a temp gauge directly to the side of the head to get a accurate reading.. maybe those mailbu fans aren't enough.. how are the fans set up? Where is the leak coming from? There is also a proper way to check timing by unplugging a est wire idk what color it is

ok check it out..
this ******* didnt rebuild the 350 like we had agreed on instead a 305 accordingly he bored it out .030 over.
we agreed he would put a hot cam in it, i was looking at the cam that was in there an its this
10066049 which is a stock cam.
which is a l98 stock cam
CAM 88-89 L98 10066049 In/Exh Dur@.050" 207'/213' Lift (w/1.5) .415"/.430" LobSep 117'

he says there is no vaccum that the xr276 i put in is to big for it, and isn't producing vaccum.
if he didn't even change the cam, why should i believe that he even did bore it out an do everything rite??
its not a damn 350 didn't put the hot cam!!!
so what the hell did he do??
maybe thats not even my stock block, since i gave it to him exchange for the 350 an some cash..
this guy is full of crap

if compression comes out the valve covers then thats definatly the valves not sealing right and your car will run like crap with no power at all.. if the smoke was coming out the tail pipe then it would be the piston rings and you would be burning oil like crazy... maybe when your copression stroke comes around and explosion happens all that heat is escaping through the valves and making the heads get hotter than they are supposed to

man thats sucks man hopefully things work out for you. You can tell if you have a 305 or 350(it should say what it 305 or 350) by looking at the casting on the back of the motor just below the passenger side head in the back, tho I think you may need the motor out to see it. If you have to pull it out again at least you can check.
