Cool! Definitely be watching this thread with interest. Reckon the smoke was from all the oil sneaking past the rings or just all the fuel thrown in there?

A former boss of mine has a rodeo with commy V6 engine backed up by a 6 speed manual from a Lexus IS200. Gruntier and more economical than the stock rodeo V6.
If you want I can ask him any questions on your behalf.

My old boss did have sump issues which resorted to him making a sheet metal sump out of a cardboard template.
