the red hose coming out of your throttle body and going under the intake....... where does that go?


that's supposed to go from your throttle body to your valve cover, where you put the oil in the motor. as you can see, yours is plugged????

if you have a bad vaccum leak, you can be pulling to much air into the motor, it will burn lean, and burn up pretty much everything

let me look around for some pictures and see if i can find anything to help.

Well, I don't know yet. Get it street legel, Tags are 2 years out. My buddy is trying to get me to swap it over to a carb...I don't know if I want to do that. But MAF swap is gonna happen soon. I'd like a mild cam, Flowmaster 40's. I was thinking nitous??? or procharger. But that's while down the road.
