Got an oliver 77 gasser that smokes like a
freight train. Did a compression test dry all six
cylinders where exactly 150 psi.
Runs real smooth, plenty of power, just a smoke show, so far
I"ve cleaned the crankcase breather, fixed a broken oil line on the rocker shaft. ran the engine with the valve cover off,everything appears ok , didnt seem like a lot of oil flying around up top to be valve seals, could it be oil rings bad with that much compression? Also it has 185402 cast on the head
and 185220 m100 on the block, serial number is 345916 c77d Any idea"s would be appreciated thanks.
