Oil coming out drivers side header
I have a new built Dohc and have been getting oil from every cylinder on the drivers side thru the header tubes
Compression is perfect leak down is minimal
Is it possible for these motors to pool the oil on top of valves and seals not returning to the pan fast enough
Thereby sucking oil in thru the seals , this is the only reason I can think of
