The gretchen is correct. Ball bearing setups are nice if you can afford! One lazy reason I didn't go ball bearing was because I didn't feel like running water and oil lines to the back of the car.

My master power t60 didn't smoke at all but when I changed to the older precision pt67, I do get some blueish smoke at WOT. I'm not sure if the seal designs are different between the two but the oil inlet is certainly different. The t60 had some type of restrictor flange inside the CHRA for the feed side while the precision is wide open (I use the same 2mm restricted oil feed flange however).

I kinda have a build page but its not up to date and not as comprehensive as the others. I want to do a few more things to my car before I provide another real update.
