The last few days ive noticed oil residue coming from the gasket where the exhaust manifold meets the block right where the top studs go in , i know its not coming from the valve cover gasket. Im running 7 psi on my setup right now and not sure if blowby is the culprit.

I have my pcv valve gutted and dumped to the atmosphere aswell and the other nipple off the VC cover. I thought this would be sufficient enough to let the engine breath

I plan on doing a leakdown/compression test in the next few days to get a better reading of whats going on, but until than anyone have any ideas...imput..anything lol

 

what do you use for fuel/eng management

 

its street tuned on crome pro and im using dsm 390s for fuel.

 

comp test should tell you if your rings are gone

 

yeah just find what compression your motorshould have and the variance range then check it out, or just do a leakdown, both will suffice.
