[QUOTE="NXcoupe, post: 624764, member: 11751"] And with white smoke out of both tailpipes, you thought it was your thermostat? Ok. I would say the gaskets on your engine are the paper ones that ford used sporaticly. I would replace them with MLS gaskets from FelPro and you should be fine. That hp you put out is terrible imho. If your engine is that bad, then it should have been blowing oil out of every orifice of the block. We had a 302 on the dyno with a vortech and only pushing 12 psi made a ton more power than that. Heck had a stock sn95 down the the factory cat back and catt'd H make 340 with 8psi. I think something is going on there. I will help you out if you find out what the timing and a/f ratio was on your tune, that could have contributed to the power and the loss of gasket. I do agree that is way too much boost tho.
