its a tick, i bled the hell out of each injector.
gonna sleep on it tonight.
and come up with a course of action tomorrow.

coming from the turbo oil drain back hole. its open,
the blow by does not concern me.

the tick does.

oil pressure is good now.
15 lbs a hot idle.
proof that the new oil cooler header is better than the last

Blowby looks perfectly normal to me. All kinds of things burning off and breaking in on a build this fresh. Especially with everything just vented as you have it right now. Sounds good too. Can just hear the idi clatter over the open exhaust. :D just sounds like an idi to me :dunno
