well if it was detonating/knocking it would have huge amount of blow by.also,were the rings actually broken in or did they just hammer it.
maybe the dry sump system wasn't plumbed right,who knows what was going on.

They're a clever group, those blow boaters, they have plenty of time to think up ideas while whistling along at 10 mph.

Ran the top gapless rings before I hatted them motor used more oil than my standard gap ring pack, Just rebuilt 2 900sc mercruisers that also had the top gapless it used oil. I have herd lot of complaints about that before. If you ask me if the engine has no blow by the ring pack will fill up with oil and it will not preform well at all.

And the cylinder prep was done correctly!
