Thanks Steve. It’s actually down to two because not only did I change the filter, I changed the filter boss as well. Same outcome unfortunately. Good news is that the oil filter element was clean when I inspected it. I’m more than a little worried about the hft cam lobes though just because even under ideal conditions we all know how problematic they can be. I’m worried about that right side.

I have a new cam and lifters and a new 80 lb oil pump from Butler on my bench ready to go.
