Yep, The boys at ERA did that epoxy work....Saw it when I got the car back after 6 weeks in CT.

I have no doubt you'll have that baby in top shape in no time!!! It's a great car. Glad to hear the PCV cut down the consumption. That car is in good hands!

Bill,
Congrats on the sale and the purchase. You're never short of a nice toy or two in the garage...!

"Only other thought I had was that the engine builder did not put any oil restrictors in the heads......"

I had the same problem with one of my early 428ci motors. I pulled the heads, pistons and changed the rings only to find out that the heads did not have restrictors...
