The LBZ Duramaxes (3rd gen, 06 & 07 Classic) are hands down the best Duramax to date. They've got a lot of improvements over previous generations without most of the newer emissions devices. My roommate is from Poulsbo, he says take it to Jet Chevrolet, not Grey (they are hit & miss). Both of us actually have 2007 Classic Duramax equipped trucks.
This was not just a little smoke it was a HUGE cloud of smoke. The kind that would blot out the sun!

I was turning about 3K when the code kicked in. I was staying off it enough to keep it from pinging. The white smoke would come when I got off the gas and it dumped fuel into a cylinder that should have been at rest.

I work in Pt Angeles and have developed a good relationship with the GMC dealer Ruddell in town. We take all the work rigs to them regardless of make for service and repair.

When I checked in tonight they were still working trying to find a bad injector. The code said a low pressure on on rail but they were having a hard time detecting what injector was bad.

I was told this Project had a L-72 427 425HP, It did not.
It does have a 427 block and parts from various 427 motors. It will end up with a nice strong 454 in the end.
It has not been run for 20+ years
