We pulled the intake and can not see where the gasket is leaking. Eddie, our Ford mechanic dropped by last night and looked at everything. We can not see a problem. So we are going to remove the head and look farther. The plugs do not show a water or
oil problem. But Mike did not drive it a lot after it started smoking. Lots of carbon on top of the valves. This motor has 15 to 20,000 miles on it. We noticed the Edelbrock Performer RPM heads and the 7105 Edelbrock intake do not match. I did not take pictures, but will Saturday after we go look at a RCR GT 40 in Huntsville.
Back to the 427,,,, I would say there is 3/16" to 1/4" mismatch on all the ports. Is this common for the 427 Edelbrock stuff? The intake and heads are 8 or 9 years old.
Mike dropped off the receipts for all the parts that was used in the build. I'll go through them tomorrow. Lots of high dollar stuff but maybe mismatched.
