Default gear heads help

woops, intended Formula forum but same applies


not my formula, but my old boat i am trying to sell.


89 454 carb engine
blows big time smoke out starboard side exhaust,
open pipes, not twined.
only after high speed run, then shut down and re start.

If you do a leak down you can listen when the cylinder is pressurized to find where the leak is. Sounds like valve seals.

How many hours?
