i was told of a good way to stop milky oil and help get temp up :wink:
an old timer told use to run a vac vent line from the manifold in side the car with a valve on it .... this way when you open it.... it sucks air to lean it out and will get the temp up as well. he also said to get the temp up to 200 deg. before shutting the car down

The engine is apart.
Thankfully, no big damage. The ring gap was a bit big on some cylinders. Gonna replace the bearings, because they were a little washed from the excess alcohol, and install some gapless rings.

I have a lean out valve on the car and I used it when the engine had a carb on it. With the injection, I just pull out the fuel shut of until the engine is lean.

I'm gonna go to gapless top rings. Changing to a Sniper manifold at the same time. It will be a couple of weeks yet.
