what happened, heres the details---
 

I think i was running lean. just installed new carbs, and was running it, port motor dropped 400 rpms, i pulled down to idle, idled fine, revved fine, killed it, went and looked and milkshake in the oil.

Blown head gasket? I just put cometics on it, but guess it doesnt matter when your lean.

its at the shop now. :(

How are the plugs? They will show you a lean condition.

Intake gaskets are the number one thing to check whenever someone says they have milkshake oil, in my book.

What type of intake?

Re: what happened, heres the details---
 

stock hp500 intake (carb).

Keep on torqing it down as many rounds as needed until the 1st bolt in the sequence holds the torque.

Sounds like you got quick service. good luck
