I have a friend who has a 74 TR6.  Recent rebuild of the engine both top and bottom.  We are a little suspicious of the machine shop that did the head.  The bottom end was done a year later by a different machinist.

  

All pollution stuff is gone.

  

Compression across all 6 cylinders is within a couple PSI

  

Leakdown test was a small % on all cylinders

  

Engine uses a lot of oil and there is a blue puff when he accelerates or engine brakes

  

We think its likely the valve guides are leaking.

  

What do you think?
