Make sure your oil level isn’t overfilled. Switch your catch can out with one that recircs back to the intake pipe instead of having a breather. Any universal catch can with baffles will workMy GPRXP car frankenstein - Microsquirt, 137+4, LS injectors, R35 coils…

My guess is that your engine is overfilled. If he had a recirculating style, his induction system would now be coated with oil. Run you oil level at the low mark to middle of the two kinks.2021 RXP X 300

The 300 engine "produces" oil. What actually happens is the plasma coated cylinger walls do not seal off perfectly and there is a large amount of ring blowby. That allows a large amount of fuel to enter the crankcase raising the oil level. After only 25-30 hours, my 300s have 3% gas content in the oil. Don't start with the engine at the full mark following an oil change or you will be overfilled shortly. Also, if running a SCOM or a tune that allows the engine to run at higher sustained RPMs, you will greatly increase the blowby.2021 RXP X 300
