2 quarts of oil loss at 3000 miles after cam upgrade
Have anyone experienced this 2 qts of oil less every 3000 miles after a cam install upgrade. Any ideas what could cause this? I was told it could possibly be the valley cover leaking.

Bad valve seals or something in the valvetrain damaging seals

I'd be surprised if it WAS NOT the valve seals considering they were recently worked on and the problem started right after...

Sounds like a valve seal issue. Pull the valve covers to see if they are pushed up or torn.
