When CAC Blew Off...

When my CAC blew off the other day I was at wide open throttle on a hill, the truck immediately fell on its face and I saw a large puff of black smoke and then a puff of white smoke, it continued to run and did not smoke after that. Was the white smoke possibly unburned fuel that was dumping into the cylinder when it lost boost?


I changed the oil this weekend, looked good and I am not losing coolant.
