here they are...

Dry Wet (1.5 tsp of oil added)
5 - 178 182 (4 cranks)
6 - 170 182 (4 cranks)
7 - 176
8 - 178

Intake Manifold Vacuum at 750 RPM idle - 11.5 to 12.2 inches Hg

going to do PKRWUD's vacuum check now...

Well, I don't think it's rings...what do ya'll think?
I have a suspicion that I have the same problem as Skiwesser, that somehow oil is getting by the lower intake/head gasket.
