Happy Sunday folks, hope it’s been a good weekend so far.
Got the shifter squared away, I’ll go back and update that thread in a minute, so I was able to properly drive this thing today and it pulls really well but as part of shaking it down I was really motoring and in a hard left turn the engine will smoke for 15 seconds or so and then clear. Not on right hand turns and not in a straight line, but it does it pretty consistently on a hard left. I’m assuming that’s related to the oil being forced to the right side of the engine, and maybe getting sucked into the combustion chamber via the head? Maybe? Kind of? Sort of? ![]() |

Sure it's not coming out of the tube on the top of the right head, and pouring/dripping down onto the exhaust? I had that problem in the race car. In my case, the tube was not properly swaged in there and it actually came out of the head! Made a friggin mess (incl on the track).
Check that tube, and the hose coming off of it. |

Also, go with a high viscosity oil such as 20W-50. I'm pretty sure Porsche recommends this on their website. https://www.porsche.com/usa/accessoriesands...ights/motoroil/ |
