Thing is I didnt know **** back then like most of you now.

With that said and what I know now I would not spray my car with a TR6 in it.

im not sayin to run a tr6 all im sayin is that ive ran em before w/o issues,,,i would not do this today

I have been fighting the oil in-gestation issue for years, these motors suck oil. Finally the cure for me was a Vacuum pump. You may have been lucky and nothing is wrong or hurt concerning the oil. what happens is the motor is pulling oil fumes into the intake all the time, and it drops out and collects in the intake, just pull the TB and stick your fingers in as far as you can, you will feel the puddled oil. then when going hard WOT i think we start pulling a lot of this puddled oil into our cylinders and burning it. i didn't watch your video but sounds like my 6-speed in the past. check out the projected vs non projected plug thread for some good insight for your tuning knowledge base.
