ok i just had my motor rebuilt, my mods are cp pistons, darton sleeves, cosworth head gasket, bc valve train, titek adjustable cam gears bc stage 3 272, greddy intake manifold, tomie big bore throttle body, emanage ultimate for tuning. my problem is the shop where my car is at can't figure out the problem. it starts and is smoking white constantly my wideband reads 10-11 air fuel ratio. they have to fix my air fuel ratio fast before it washes my piston rings out again.they would pull fuel out on the emanage to about 14-1 but it goes back to the 10-11 on the gauge. the emange connectos are connected fully and i don't have a clue. anybody have any ideas what the problem could be.

Ugh did this same shop build your engine? And are they letting it go into closed loop mode before they try tuning it? Is it throwing any codes?

Sounds like timing is off.

I dont know why they are so worried about washing the rings, I've run 10 A/F R at idle on cars plenty of times. They should be more worried about the white smoke.

What shop are you working with?
