'Puff' on start up! valve seals need replacing....
Oh absolutely. First noticed it at start up. Now if I’m stuck at a light for longer than I’d like, it’ll make a larger plume upon acceleration. Isn’t constantly billowing, just when it sits for a prolonged idle. After 220k miles on the original motor and that’s literally the only thing wrong...- John Nes

73 shift lever question
So I figured out why this janky lever looks different... it’s cuz the knob snapped off the flanged part of the lever. I’d be needing both to be honest. Specifically non tilt if there’s a difference in the detent pattern- John Nes

Valve guides or rings. Worn ring in my 87’s case. Per the wizard mechanic at the shops recommendation, been trying a bottle of ‘engine restore’, so far it hadn’t helped any blowby but it hadn’t gotten worse either- John Nes

73 shift lever question
About to dive into another restoration, and was trying to find a good reference image for a 73 column shift lever on a non tilt column. The knob has long been snapped off but for some reason it kind of seems different than my 79, and 87 (obviously). Any pictures would be a huge help- John Nes
