Actually, all savages do that, it just depends how much oil is getting on your truck. My savage did the same while in break-in and a little after that. If the oil on your rig bothers you, try getting a deverter, this will channel all exhaust away from your truck, just make sure it is not longer than 4 inches otherwise you will feel a less-power difference

My savage was also doing this alot. Once I started leaning out the HSN I don't have as much. LandShark have you started leaning out already?

My Savage spits fuel out like it is foaming at the mouth!!!!!!! Actually this is just because it is to rich. As I lean it out I have noticed that there is less and less fuel being spit on the chassis plates.

Keep in mind that you want some fuel being spit out as this will show that you have lubrication for the top end. you should always see a stream of smoke coming from your exhaust while driving. No smoke means that you are to lean and will soon burn up!

We have all seen this, you know the T-Maxx who goes up against the MIGHTY SAVAGE and is burned up under extreme pressure!!!!!!! It is just a case of the small block wanting to be like the big block!!!!!!
