It be cool to be able to hook up a blow by meter, and monitor those numbers, as when its time to do a freshen up. I read a post on one of the sites like yellowbullet or speedtalk, where they had a used/ran engine that had super low leakdown numbers with gapless rings, and when they strapped it to the dyno, the blowby cfm under full throttle load was off the chart.

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.

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!
