    Honestly sounds rather impossible. Did you have some push the gas while the thing was in the air?

    When idling oil pressure is half that of when on the gas. Itll also be the same when the oil is cold.

    Pcv can create a buildup of crank pressure causing something to fail in a way that is typically not possible.

    When it was a small leak only under boost I had it on the lift holding it at 3000rpm's and still nothing. Haven't tried it since it became the Exxon Valdez.
