Thanks Jaxonalden. I have ordered the tubes and will let you know how it went once I get them in!

Well, like I said it was my 2 cents and I don't know a whole lot about these water cooled 6's. As for my smoke explanation; that is what I was told by Matt at Sport Haus in Reno (surely someone has heard of them because they are world reknowned for their turbo work).

The more I get on here though, the more that I learn everyday, even if it is tough love. Thanks for the mentorship.

I'm sure he said "valve seals" not "valve seats."

But even so, nothing to do with this issue.
