finally got pics, it needs a bath cause of the oil. with the sealed valve covers and no PCV (in progress) the only vent is through the breather. and until the rings get seated it will have some blow-by. the machine shop told me 1000 miles to seat the rings and a quart or two of oil. it gets better the more I drive it. I beat a cavilier with it the other day. that's nothing to brag about but I did find out that I can't keep it glued to the ground on a launch. still dreaming on that one. hope you enjoy!!
