I had a very similar issue with an AH. DPO had put 100-6 pistons in a 3000
with the 3000 rings. Smoked something terrible, but also blew oil out the
valve cover vent like crazy. I would expect that if standard pistons were
used, he would have a huge oil mess too.

I was thinking the same thing. Literally, it's what he said. Well, yeah, the
rings will never seal at that point. Smoke city...
