[drice]

well welcome to my life. I finally got the 215 pump on tonight started it up white smoked pretty bad even with the timing at 17. 7. at low rpms smoked bad after about 2000 rpm it would run fine. anyway decided to take it out just to see if it was gonna run ran bad poping and backfireing for a while finally started running better so I decided to take it to town to show a few friends. remember I got the truck running at 10:30pm got to town at 10:45. got to the middle of town decided to get on it to see how it smoked well at 10:50 smoke came on hard 10:50:30 turbo spooled 10:51 tourbo blew up. :{ and to think I was suposed to go racing tomarrow with it.
