Valve Cover Leak!
Well the other day i was boostn like normal and all of a sudden i get on it and then i noticed it wasnt pullin as well....and i noticed white smoke from behind. Well i look under the hood and oil was leakin from around the valve cover...onto the manifold...instantly boiling it into smoke...and there was also oil on the hood...well i replaced the valve cover gasket today and it still leaks! Not anything like b4 but ...still leaks. Its comming out of my small filter on my valve cover also! HELP!!!!! Someone said something about (BLOW BY) ? HELP
That happened to me...you probably blew your rings. Do a leakdown test. I now have 700 miles on my new motor, get ready to rebuild. Sorry for the bad news.

yep same here...... do a compression test.... 1. do the test... 2. do the test again this time with oil in the cylinders. if the number rises then it is your rings.
goodluck
