Default TSP Dart Stg II fixed?

I know they've been having problems with smoking and such, I was wondering if TSP addressed this problem? Seems like on a thread I searched the main problem was cheap seals that broke and better seals solved this problem. Has TSP confirmed that this was the problem and swapped out the cheap seals for better ones?

Well Dart confirmed that it was the problem. You should be able to use the Comp 511-16 seals to correct the problem.

Edit: The only way a cylinder head can eat oil is around the valves thru the valve guides. You need the correct seals AND guide to valve clearance and this will not happen. You can also eat oil thru the rocker stud holes into the intake port, but if you don't put sealer on that well your just a dummy.

I have my "out of the box" dart 205's.. Just curious if any one has a "proven" CNC program for the darts yet?

That is absolutely not the fix.. We shipped several people replacement seal sets to cutomers & NOBODY had that solve the problem... We currently don't offer the ported Darts anymore..
