At the track I pulled the plugs on one bank... put
the plug back in and totally forgot to put all 4
wires on... and I put the hood on and fired it up
wondering WHY it was such a pig... even tried
to clean out the carb

I kept having valley pans cracking and leaking oil out.I tried 3 different intakes and at least 4-5 valley pans.I could not figure out why they kept cracking.So my father looks at it the one day and says wheres your breather?I felt like such a dumb azz because i only had the pcv and a oil cap on the other cover.I was surprized the vaccumm was strong enough to crack it.
