ok, so i have put the engine back in the car after swapping the diffs over
from another car, no problem. But i also swapped heads after starting the
car, it started to deviate in revs and blow alot of smoke (neighbours are
just so happy) the heads were the same bar the fact that i put an unleaded
head on the car, hence the swap.

Any clues?

Cheers
