Quote: 1qt/200 miles is a Lot of oil to suck buy the pan but I suppose its possible. Others disagree but I prefer to use the composition gaskets on both sides of the valley pan. I even superglue them to the pan the day before install--very anal about it, I create wood plates to clamp both sides.
What ever you do dont use RTV around the intake runners--RTV is not gasoline resistant.
You may have more than one source of oil loss.
I would say that is where most of the oil is getting in there. I like to use at least one gasket , and have a little machined off the intake , the composition gasket are .030 thick EACH .
