Question for TP/LTH users, oil smoke @ high RPM?

Unless I see it under load on the highway I can't comment. What I will comment is revving and engine without load is just asking for trouble! That video was

What I will comment is revving and engine without load is just asking for trouble! That video was a huge no no by almost every engine builder in the universe and should be avoided.

Was for the purposes of this video only, not something I do regularly.

Wasn't bouncing off the rev limiter, the valves aren't going to float at the RPMs the engine was seeing and it's got over 38K miles of break in done, it's not going to hurt anything at all.

Doesn't do it under load, only on lift. Never noticed it on the highway, but did notice it on the dyno, again only after lift.
