Done! Smoke NOW!
Alrighty, I will try your suggestions and hopefully it will stop, thanks for the info guys and beautiful girl. LOL. Could very well be the EGR valve it has never been serviced or changed as far as I know, it is a speed density so I dont have MAF. Can't wait till I get home and finish!!!!!!!!<IMG src=smileys/smiley4.gif border="0"><IMG src=smileys/smiley17.gif border="0"></P>

Do you no how to check your egr to see if it operates properly? It works on vaccum as rpm goes up vac starts to work put your finger in the hole behind the egr
bring rpms up and the plunger in the egr will move or it should.<img border="0" src=smileys/smiley3.gif border="0">

My ride was burning oil profusely one day. I cleaned the pcv valve and then soaked the pcv screen beneath it in carb cleaner. It seemed to fix the problem. The screen is an oil vapor separater to keep oil out of the pcv system.

smoke from inside the engine? smoke from oil in the exhaust could be bad valve seals,orpiston rings. whot esmoke can also be cause by water too, maybe a bad head gasket? you didnt give a real good description of the problem area and were it is exactly coming from. just an idea but it may very well be the egr valve

if its coming from the block, are all the gaskets on the headers? are they tight?it could be exhaust, or oil spilling on hot parts somewere such as a loose dipstick top but that would only spray oil at high rpms, is it at start up? while driving? idling??

Guys and Gals, you are going to laugh at me **LOL** Well at least I was laughing at myself cuz of the oversight. Well I fixed the problem, it was an easy fix. I overlooked 2 vacuum lines. The first is the on that goes from the upper intake in the front to the Airpump, that is the one that was causing the white smoke. The other line was in the back of the upper intake which is the one that went to the MAP. I connected those 2 and problem was solved. Oh I LOVE IT SHE SOUNDS SWEEEEEEET. Those long tube headers X-Pipe and American Thunder System are a great combo!!!! She sounds mean and agressive the way a STANG should sound!!!!! And I feel the power gain!!!!! Last night when I started her up she roared!!!! My parents live next door to me and said they heard it from their bedroom!!!! HEhehehehehe.</P>
