A few things actually.
A) My last 300 mile tank of gas showed very little oil consumption. Maybe 1/8th of the distance between full and empty on the dipstick. REALLY scratching my head over that, I can still see the faint haze in my mirrors on hard acceleration.
B) I found that I actually had a valve cover oil leak on the back of the engine. Had a new gasket on hand, and replaced that without issue. Almost no driving on it since though.
C) My PCV valve was apparently faulty as well, as it is not 1-way, but 2-way right now. I'd expect no-way would pull more oil into the intake than 2-way, but it's a known cause of consumption (though not at the levels I was seeing) I replaced it with the original one I had on the other engine (which is appropriately 1-way).
D) Spent the trip topping off with the oil they gave us at Mid Ohio, and it wasn't till I got home that I found out it is one of the worst offenders when it comes to oil consumption in old engines. Got a quart of Lucas Engine Oil Stop Leak to top off with next, but with almost no burn off, I'm puzzled.
Still haven't found my loose ignition issue. Positive it is something loose causing the problem, since every time I start it and see it stumble, I pop the hood, give the plug wires a firm wiggle on the plug and coil ends, and the problem disappears. Every time.
