      Fired up the engine today to actually break it in, but ran into some problems. Drivers header would have an intermittent white puff, probably from a single cylinder. Header had oil in it after the run. For reference, passenger header was dry.



      Dipstick was a few inches above normal, oil was milky. Seems like I have a water leak. When I pulled the pcv valve out of the valve cover a constant stream of white steam shot out. It was enough steam that it came out a little bit through the pcv breather on the other side, meaning it was more crankcase pressure than manifold vacuum.

      I'm gonna drain the oil tomorrow to see if there's water at the bottom of the pan. Before I do anything drastic, I'll redo the head bolts with thread sealer. Does anyone know where else to check?
