Welcome ... nice looking Z with great mods. The C68 option (electronic air) was not rare - 22,500 Vettes had this option in 1990. Only about 1,000 didn't have it. (Of course, these are figures for all C4s, not just ZR-1s) |

Nice numbers.
What causes the smoke on the first second or two of decel before he pops it into neutral at the end?

Thanks.
Its pretty cold out ... but the car definitely smokes a bit when you get on it. I have been told it is exhaust valve seals also ... they weren't installed in the 90's ... Hammer is correct My Mechanic didn't think it was a problem, the last owner told me to expect it ... and my 91' GMC Syclone does the same thing too ---

Almost every LT5 I have seen on a chassis dyno have done this on decel. High rpms, closed throttle body equals high manifold vacuum equals burnt oil.
