The problem started after a pass. I chucked it up to rings not seated properly or some other crap. It then got prgressivly worse. He made another pass a week later and it became unbearable. The car is used primarily for street fighting. In fact the mileage is probably more like 2000. I did not see any evidence of a leaking intake gasket. And since the two cylinders were not directly beside each other I don't suspect a head gasket. But anything is possible. We are using the Summit electric fuel pump kit, with a "team G" intake. The other cylinders were fairly dark. I have not check the plugs yet.
