... You can put the gage on the dipstick tube, but I have the feeling you'll see for yourself the breather(s) being pushed up off the valve covers. AFAIC this is a straight forward blow by issue -- you've eliminated everything else. How much you can tolerate is up to you. Using two breathers might mask the issue, but it certainly won't fix it.

I really don't see how you can avoid re-honing and re-ringing the engine. Trust me, I'm in the same boat except as you, but right now I don't have the time or money to fix it.

i was planning on going this coming friday, just to tune it in. while it doesn't perform the way i want it to, it still is no slouch. and i know the A/F could still be dialed in better.

i agree that i will have to re hone/ring it, but for now i just have to figure a way to keep the oil inside the engine. there has to be a way to do that, even if i have to rig a more extensive baffle system inside the valve cover...
