Leakdown test results update
An update of my previous thread below.
Hooked up a hose from my dipstick tube to a catch can and took it out for a 25 mile run with several 3/4 throttle blasts. The pics show how much oil is blowing out of the tube. Did a test again and got 16% across all cylinders. Slight improvement on the 20%. Engine is coming out at the weekend and going back to the builder for investigation.
