Or, could this be a viscosity related issue.

Just thinking...

I can only speculate as to why it was doing this only on the one bank where the oil was being diverted to the ims bearing and not to the cams and lifters. I don't believe that taking oil from this point in the engine is a good idea, you can starve critical engine components and cause a failure. This is the first time I have seen Pedros fix so I have nothing to compare it to but I have installed many of the LN solutions and not had a single problem with any of them.
