costly weekend fer sure, but the blow by is cut in half thanks for the tip. We did not put total seal ring in this motor so it will have some blow by. Hey mr doofus if we have a dyno day you going to show???

Well if we tell all ya'll,...Wheeeeeel hafta kill ya!!!! LOL

We are gonna make a million dollars selling it to all ya'll feller's with worn out trucks

Actually I noticed Buck had a small vacuum leak when I wus lookin under his hood. When your spinnin the motor as fast as he is, it will make a butt load of blow by.

So to answer your question,....He fixed the leak.

Buck,....If ya'll put sumtin together I'll try to make it, I'ed like to see if my 1st gen Ford has hit the 2hunard horse mark yet.

A vid is worth a 1000 words

The only reason the glove doesn't blow off is because it fill's up and then pushes the air out the end that the drill is stuck in, (normally blocked by the P/s pump)

The drill is spinning slower than the truck idle's. It's a 1/2 hp drill and you can hear it slowing down the motor when blocked.

J7 we didn't have the vacuum pump hooked up no need for A/C or to select defrost or vent, but with this cool weather might have to hook up the heater to defrost the windshield...but you can see why it would cause more blow-by...
