Weird valve issue

[overboostin]

once it sits for at least 15 minutes after running, it should show the true level.
I was surprized that after my rebuild how much oil it takes. the manual will tell you(just example numbers)
oil change w/o filter 3.9 quarts
with filter replacement 4.4 quarts
oil after rebuild 5.2 quarts....as long as you wait long enough, just add till at the proper mark. it will not be at the proper mark till you run the engine and circulate oil through the whole system, then let it rest to show the true level.

I let it rest overnight

What concerns me most about this thread is the "POP". Why does it pop?

Yeah- I've never had the head off, but I'm curious as to what happens to oil that leaks by buckets-drainage holes that dump it?

Valve buckets sometimes get stuck in the bore. If it started happening after a valve adjustment, it may be due to a metal shaving that was dislodged into the bore. It may be that the piston hitting the valve is what finally gets it to pop, so be careful not to bend a valve.
