Built by Kev at TKP on 2004 with the works. 320Hp. on Pump @ 10psi and right about 440 whp. @26psi. on C-16. Which I almost Never do! Runs like a Bear as always. 8k on motor. Never beat On. When I change the oil and let it drain overnight then remove oil return line from turbo at the oil pan, there is still oil in that line. As we all know there has always been an oil level situation with these early installs. Put too much in the crankcase and oil comes out where the air filter is on the turbo. Rear is slightly lower than the front and the bike sits pretty much even on the kick stand. It doesn't smoke when I'm riding but when I hit a stop light it smokes heavy. Oil Smoke. Was thinkin' valve guides. Pulled the plugs and they are Black but not wet. Pulled the Plenum and the hoses and pipe from the turbo and the inside is wet..especially on the silicone hoses. Now, I have the Motor Ready to Drop (God, If I Don't Have To, I DON'T Want To). I keep thinkin'...What If: All I have to do is Re-Pipe the oil Re-Turn line from the Turbo to the Pan to make sure that oil gets out of that Dam Turbo. As it is now, if I start it without the Air Filter on, I can see the oil start to trickle out. The oil in the sightglass is NEVER close to the Line. Seems like it got worse when I switched from regular 10-40 to Royal Purple a couple of years ago. I Don't Know!! I'm SCRAMBLED People. I was a member on Tkp's site years ago and i would of asked Kevin BUT No more TKP and No more Kevin. Like i said, If I don't have to pull the motor I really Don't want to. I'm an HVAC Mechanic and can do just about everything but I put alot of $$ into this motor and I don't want to screw it up putting it back together. What do you Guy's think?? ???Thanks, Rich...
