got her back in the air. turned out to be a girdle -windage tray problem , I think. main seal was dry on the outside. seems the main seal cap was cut down by my machinist I guess. it`s .022 shorter than the block. block was line honed but not that much ! lol . anyway I didn't catch it and fill it w/ sealer . hope this is the problem! did prelube the engine again to check my oil modification change, watched the rocker shafts and lifters oiling. lot more oil excapeing the lifters than I thot, are MRL roller too ! have the windage tray in for sale section if someone needs one.----bob
