Yep keep the oil in the center of the marks on the sight glass ..If anyone should have oil in there air box it would be me after 200 or more 1/4 passes... I have yet to have a drop of oil in mine ...Smokin..

I have a shortened oil pan, It might have had to much in it, But it showed right on the site glass

By making the pan shorter you have made less room for the blow by gasses. Less room in the crank cases and the same amount of oil...It's got to go somewhere... That could cause a problem ... That would be my guess.. Smokin..

True, I wish I had a photo of the pan, But picture this, It bassically has had that part that hangs down cut off, and an aluminum box welded on, It would hold more oil and I think that is where the problem was

Compression was good, Only the 2 outside cylinders were higher, probably because they were oiled up
