do a compression test a.s.a.p. just to make sure since the oil just showed up all of a sudden. a buddy's car started the same thing. eating oil through the intake like crazy and it has 205-210 across all of the cylinders, except #7. it has 10.
i started tearing it apart last night, and the motor should hopefully be out here in a few hours. i'm putting my money on missing a chunk of piston from detonation if it's that bad. the blowby of the compression is actually pumping the oil up through the intake.

Thankis, if you look at post # 11 pic 2 i do have a catch can i made from home depot, would it possibly be that i need another one on the hose going into the top of the throttle body?

i just bought a used 02 ls1, while i was taking off the transmission the motor leaned forward and oil started dripping out of the throttle body. Should this be cause for concern? and should i turn over the engine with the spark plugs out to clean the oil out the engine?

My car was doing the samething as CLARKSLS1SS I had a chunk of my piston on #5 missing. I was hauling *** and the car started to smoke I did a compression test on all. 1,3, and 5 were not in the 10% and pulled the motor and found some of the piston on #5 going. This blows
