I have friend with a very solid 383 with minimal miles that started doing that. He hasn't looked into it yet. I just wonder if there is a problem with rings seating in rebuilt engines that sit a lot? There also has to be an influence from high compression pistons as well.

anything unusual out the tailpipes???
My 340 GTS blew a head gasket up into the lifter valley once years ago. Blew smoke out one tail pipe (no H pipe), and puffed smoke out the oil fill/breather like a locomotive (puff puff puff)as well. Engine was fine, just the blown head gasket (no coolant leaks in this case).

If you are using a street type exhaust you will end up pressuring your crankcase instead of evacuation it
Would it work with a one way diverter type valve? I have 3 inch exhaust and turndowns before the axles. Would that make any difference in getting it to work? Mike

I agree with Bob that you may have a ring seal problem, If thats the case it will only get worse. I had the same problem last summer.
I`m sure there is a ring seal problem but I like to use the car some this summer before the rebuild. Mike

Use some old socks to wrao the breathers when you leave the house and enjoy the summer, when winter comes tear it down. Thats the route I took.
