Leaking oil from seal, replaced LT4 with LS3 seal and after a few WOT drives seems to be leaking oil again, something in the tune must be messed up. I don't have a clue.

Did they install a catch can? If plugged or plumbed wrong it could be creating excess bottom end pressure

BTW I was about to take my car there. Looks like I am giving vengeance a call

Don’t Forget to Check Out LSXperts And Spartan LSX Performance. Both are phenomenal shops that I have let them build my 5th Gen And 6th Gen. I never had an issue with either one.

No, no catch can.

Thanks for those recommendations. Lsxperts looks close enough. I will look them up and learn more.

Go with Vengeance Racing. They're worth the extra drive if there is one.

What’s your complete list of modifications? I can’t really see it being a tuning thing, unless they cracked a ringland or something. That can cause a ton of crankcase pressure.

To me it sounds like something in the pcv system is screwed up or incorrectly installed. Having done my own build and tuning, its the most likely scenario.

When you setup a Business IG account, it’s a category you choose by default when you choose “automotive”. Lol You can’t change the verbiage.

I had never heard that they did anything other than cars. But the reference to planes and boats cracked me up, could not resist.

Just like some business pages say “Personal Figure”, “Motor Vehicle Company”, etc. If it’s setup as a business page, it allows more business options on the page, like adding a link to Email, Call, Directions.

Forgive me but I’m kinda lost here.
Is the blower leaking oil?
Is the front crank seal leaking oil?
You say an LS3 seal was installed?
What exactly is leaking?
I must admit I haven’t worked on any LT engines but hundreds of LS engines.
So I’m confused here. What’s leaking? And what is interchangeable between an LS3 engine and LT4 engine?

That's what I'm hoping it is! If it's a cracked ringland then I'm screwed.. Mods are: Long tubes with kooks green cats, and a griptec 2.30 pulley.
