[QUOTE="01yellercobra, post: 15259252, member: 35549"] Something reading your post just reminded me about. I ran my big bore set up NA for about a year. Around 2010-2011 IIRC. During that time I went to a dyno day. During the decel it shot out a decent amount of blue smoke. Enough I got concerned. When I got home I did a full compression test and every cylinder was over 180psi. I figured something happened with the PCV system so I deleted it. No one driving with me ever said anything about smoke like that again. So I figured it was fixed. Maybe it was the issue of creating too much vacuum and sucking the oil past the seals? My heads were rebuilt before I assembled the engine. Now I'm feeling bad for recommending the gapless set up. [/QUOTE]
