what next

i seemed to be gaining oil in my truck so i took out the injectors and put new washers and o-rings on the and the o-rings on the connector tubes. i get some blowby but still don't seem to loose any oil. so where do i look next is it possable one injector is bad and over fueling sending fuel past the piston? i would like to be more confident in my truck befor upping the turbo size.

some blowby is normal depending on your definition of some.

well i know when i was sled pulling the marshal said theres oil coming out from under your truck. but yeah blowby is ok sure, but my truck is not loosing oil so where could it be getting it from if the injector and connector tube gaskets are good.

You might not have been blowing out that much oil. Puddles on the ground always look a lot bigger than what shows on the dipstick. If you are concerned, get an oil analysis, see how much fuel is actually in your oil. Expect some, but there shouldn't be a lot. Hopefully the analysis place can give you a range, or others on here with modded trucks that have done it can give you a comparison with their numbers.

If you have fuel in the oil, (alot) eventually it is going to eat up your main and other seals, unless it grenades first.
