With this 2.3ltr I've had problems with MAD oil in my spark plug wells.The car smokes sometimes at crazy times.Has anyone ever had this problem and did it smoke and what was your cure? I tried to get a mad tite JDM valve cover but some asshat from Chrome2Go is attempting to screw me.I'll post up that story after i get this fixed

I'm leaning towards the valve cover. I ppreciate all the info.I siliconed the hell out of it and the gaskets are fairly new.I think I will make a spacer for my filler cap for just in case. I thought maybe crankcase pressure so I did a road tube but that didnt seem to help much. I'll keep you all posted as I will be using the Black Bitch for my daily driver next week.
