[QUOTE="Riley P, post: 6711, member: 2"] Interesting, I did not realize that the oil consumption problem was also involved with the LS-6, I thought it was only the LS-1. Crazy. Here is my guess: I am not sure about the engine reseating itself, unless there was maybe some light corrosion of some type on the steel sleeves, it is also possible that the oil was getting by the valve guides as they could have dried out a bit from sitting so long and it took a while to get them to seal again. However, hopefully someone with some real knowledge will chime in. [/QUOTE]
