I didn't have a chance to check the vent last night when I got home, but there is significantly less smoke/dripping when I park the car. I'm positive it was overfilled by about a quart. I'm just baffled as to where it was hiding!

Wayne, the engine was out to adjust the valves because when we were standing there scratching our heads trying to figure out how to get the lower valve cover on the left side by all the turbo plumbing, much less make an accurate adjustment we decided it was the way to go. My dad has owned the car since roughly 1985 and has consequently had the engine out several times. We figured in the long run it would take just as long, plus it gave access to other items (shocks, dist cap, rotor, plugs, fuel filt, etc.) Sure these things could be done with it in the car, but it was sure easier with the engine on the floor!
Douge, that drive sounds great. I still have a couple of things to get sorted out, but hopefully will in the near future!
