So I have about 200 hours on an overhaul of my O-320 with the 160 hp Ram conversion, everything running smoothly. But after it blows out the obligatory 8th quart after an oil change, it uses practically no oil for the remaining 30 hours or so. Is this a bad thing? I would expect at least a quart in 20 hours or so through the valve quides if nothing else.
