Poured valley brace thoughts
Would this cause any breathing issues by putting extra pressure into the crank case?
My engine builder has stripped down the motor to find the problem with it pushing oil out the dipstick. It did what I told him was happening on his dyno, got to 3000rpm and pushed oil out. He says that all the bores and rings are perfect and measure correctly. He did his own leakdown test before and got 15% on 3, 12% on 4 and 7 the rest were 9%.
I had the same set up with my solid roller cam and that had some leaks around the pan but nothing from the dipstick.
Could the lack of holes in the poured in brace be restricting the breathing?
