All I've heard you complain about is a little smoke from one side, and you've confirmed with the leak down test that your rings aren't seated fully. Sure, you can tear it down and start over, but if it were in my garage I'd be taking it out and driving the P!SS out of it for the summer, and if it's still smoking in September buy a new engine from one of the reputable FE specialists out there and start again when it warms up. Oh, forgot you're in Tallahassee - drive it until it quits smoking, or you get sick of it and then buy the new, fully assembled and tested engine.
Sorry, but the answer just seems so logical to me. I'm done, and won't post here again.Roger
Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.
