My engine is pretty new only around 1400 miles, Streetported and balanced, was broken in with 600 miles no boost and not above 3 grand, Tuned by Steve Kan at Gotham racing. car has been dieing at idle driving it around, so I bumped up the idle to around 1200 to take it out. Drove it around and bellowed blue white smoke the whole time even while getting gas after it had warmed up. Then it kinda hesitated from a start and sounded didfferent. Sounds more like a Huey helicpotor with it's chopping noise when it runs. I went out today and looked around and I see oil accumlating on the sub frame and oil pan. I have the oil pan reinforement brace also. and I noticed that On the relays that are right on the battery post. The farest one back toward the driver is missing completly. Whats that one for? Anyways it's bunk Car was running great till this.

Any chance I might of gotten a bad motor?

I have had a few cars come in to our shop sounding like this they all needed rebuilds.Hard to say not seeing the car and all but if motor is not smooth and there is smoke. Together those are signs of problems with the motor core.I would contact the rebuilder.We rebuild 13btt motors from $1500 carry out and from $1950 installed.

oil pan leak?

FlameThrowingRotary

I dont know I just crawled under it real quick before I got ready for work. I have the oil pan reinforcement brace. But there is oil on my subframe and on the pan itself and about a 2 inch wide spot on the garage. It's not my daily driver, I havn't driven it in 2 weeks since that night. It got me home and ran ok once in gear just sounds awful at idle and kinda hesitant.

already did that I'm kinda wondering what that relay is that i'm missing though

so after the break in and tune it drove fine for 800 miles??? No problems at all???? During the 800 miles did you drive it hard and ever had any boost spikes?

FlameThrowingRotary

no I have a profec b that steve played with when he tuned it and I never touched it. Just I took it out for a drive one day and it stalled going up in the driveway, then I took it for a photo op and it died like 8 times in 2 miles so I brought it home. bumped the idle to take it out and then it did that
