Thread: Forged and stroked Sohc burns oil on startup.

    Forged and stroked Sohc burns oil on startup.

    [SIZE=2]Built this engine a few years ago it seems to have used oil on startup since built, guessing valve stem oil seals. How hard and how long will it take a shop to replace the seals, and do you agree that the seals are the problem.

    There is no way to properly diagnose something like that over the internet. Are you seeing smoke when you start it?
