So let me ask this: What would be the cause of excessive blow by? Broken or cracked rings? This particular 460 seems to also have abnormally high oil pressure (65 cold, 55 warm) compared to my other one which normally runs 45/35. I plan to do a leak down test as soon as I can borrow the apparatus; worst case scenario being a rebore, rings, pistons this winter.
