oil and smoke come thur vent tube on valve cover

[tta983]

Oil and smoke come thru vent pipe on pass side valve cover, not at idle but around 2000 or higher rpm. Drove it down the road and a lot of smoke got inside car and the oil had blown out on the firewall and the engine. Any clue to what is going on?

Sounds like your lifting a head....

Mines did the same thing and ON MY car it was due to LOTS of Blow-by.

Car ran fine pryor to this happening. Didnt have any excess blowby before. What can I do to fix the problem.

You can try re-torquing the cylinder head bolts to see if that fixes the problem, but if it doesn't, it may very well be a blown head gasket....

I will try to re-torque them, if it dont work. I have a extra set of original TTA heads, I will try to get them reworked at Champion. Then intall them with all new gaskets.
