Re: valve covers, engine rebuild, other stuff

Please let us all know if your oil consumption dramatically drops when you swap on a valve cover with oil baffles. It seems like such a minor detail, but makes such a big difference. My new engine was going through quarts of oil too until I made the fix.

Oh yeah - don't forget to check your plugs. They will be VERY fouled at this point. Your performance will certainly improve with cleaned or new plugs. You will notice that the plugs that have the closest intake runners to the PCV port on your carb base will be the most fouled.
