Hello.
Sorry for my bad english tongue.gif

My 7afe have been smoking blue smoke for some time now.. and the smell of oil is present almost all time (USE ALOT OF OIL!)... It smokes never when idle, only when i give it some trotle.
i have been thinking it may be the Valve seals, but it might be the piston rings aswell...
what is your opinion?

Yeah if you have to go to oversized pistons anyways, but is there any larger crank without grinding down the rod journals?
