It's strange, when I floor the gas I get this like mist that shoots up and out of venturies #4 and#2. It doesn't really seem to be causing any problems but it just seems not quite right. Anyone know whats going on here??

It's not necessarily a problem, but too much is a bad sign.

It's called standoff or reversion. The longer the duration on the cam shaft the more prevalent it can be. Do a Google search to understand more about it.

Shooting video out of the back of my race car, I can clearly see it on all 4 cylinders for the entire run.
