[QUOTE=Graphite05G]Here you go guys...here are some pics of my revup after I had it torn down. The HUGE problems that I discovered it the piston ring lands are VERY weak. Every land was either fractured or broke completly. It seemed that on every piston it was on the outside side of the piston, where there is more stress. The oil build up on the piston was severe, and the side of the where the "coating" is was applied thin and was already worn down. This is with 18K on the motor. The reason I am spending my own money on this is I don't want the same Sh** happening again. IMO the pistons are the whole problem. Thought I would post these.....

This can be the most important post on this board regarding the oil consumption issue. Finally some concrete proof of the problem.

One question, was your motor boosted?

BTW, I am the thread starter of EVERYONE CHECK YOUR OIL.
