“Feel” it burning oil? Interesting. Anyway, also make sure the correct oil is in it. I’d give Valvoline VR1 20W50 if it was mine. ---

my guess is it just was pissed off at you for not taking out the z06 to cruise with the rest of the heavy weight domestics. You brought a knife to a gun fight! I still love you. ---

Sounds like PCV system issues and a catch can will take care of that.

I usually make them from 3" dia aluminum tubing for the body. so find a place where you can stuff a 3"X##" tall tube and let me know the MAX height for the can.
