Bad night.. Lots of oil and lots of smoke (carnage pics)

No vacuum leaks BUT i may have an exhaust leak by the rear crossover? its such a pain in the balls to tighten the clamps having the shrek hands i have

Use some RTV in the joint - it'll seal right up!

Did you change the MAF table in your PCM?

nope absolutely no tuning yet.. i have driven it like 1.3 miles. the temp sensor got up to 240*.. so i turned it off.. i had an air bubble.. and nearly 1.5 gallons short of coolant bonk

Didn't realize how much it takes!

You need that maf table before you do any more running.

Maybe you didn't let the RTV cure fully before you ran the car?

possibly i'm gonna take the front header off tonight/tomorrow.. than pull the crossover.. and clean off all the RTV and start at square one. going to put RTV in the rear header at the crossover. on the crossover and jam it in there tight.. than use gobs of RTV under the clamp.. same for the front crossover/clamp.. this WONT leak this time.. but might look tacky razz
