Anyone ran into an issue of oil coming up shaft and into distributor pickup area? I have a pertronix 3 distributor system I got from FBO systems. Noticed oil leaking from drain hole in bottom of distributor. Opened the cap and there is oil below pickup. I spoke to FBO and he said its from excessive pressure in crankcase under load. The engine rebuild has less than 10k on it. I am running a pcv system from the valley pan. FBO says the upper bearing is sealed and should not leak unless its excess pressure. I'm going to try to put a guage on the oil fill tube and power brake it to see what I get. Just wondering if anyone else has ran into this issue. Thanks
