Sorry to ask another question,I have alot of pressure in my head ,smoke has started to come out of my valve cover through the filter on my valve cover along with alot of pressure.I have not done a compression test yet but wanted to get a couple of quick opinions.Oh btw I don't reccomend nology spark plug wires ,use taylors all day.Just thought I would throw that in.Also I had posted a topic about my psi,well now it is taking longer to spool up.I am thinking head gasket.

If your getting alot of smoke out of the breather hole in the VC and you have noticed more lag in your set up, There is a good chance you are getting blow by. Either your rings are shot your you broke some lands. Do a comp test on all they cyl's, Make sure to do it with the throttle WO, Run it once dry then add a cap of oil to each cyl and run it again to see if the PSI bumped up.

If you add oil and your compression raises your rings are bad, if not, your ringlands are shot. I would also reccomend you do a leak down test too.

not 100% true, i had a hair line crack in my lands ands the oil bumped the compsion, Either way take that breather filter off and hook it up to a vacuum source, This will help pull the presure out and prvent damage in the future.
