Are you in Oregon? I'd like to see the build. Post pics, that always gets people at least looking at your build.
I can't help much, but I like seeing problems and how they're solved. All I know is white smoke is excess unburnt fuel, black is excess burnt fuel.
Waaay back I drove a 40' boom/crane flatbed with a plugged air filter and I purposely floored it on the freeway back to the shop and it blew a white cloud that fogged all lanes for a quarter mile.
Stuff a 22yr old does.
Are you sure you have clean filters?
