All right guys and gals I got one for ya. I finally fired my new engine and started putting some miles on it. Problem is, it's using a lot of oil in # 5&6. I ran a leak down test and all cylinders only leak down 2%, (gapless rings). I called Top End Performance and they told me that if I installed the HKS mhg dry it is probably seeping oil. TEP also told me that there is not enough oil in the top of the engine for it to be any type of valve guide or seal problem, but I pulled the upper intake and oil was pooled up in the lower intake with no evidence of it comming from the upper intake. If it was the head gasket, I don't see how the oil could make it's way all the way out of the port and 4-6 inches into the lower intake. I'm out of ideas on what the problem is. I was hoping maybe someone out there has seen or heard of this problem.


thank you all who read this,
