Family,  the last two times i have had the oil pan off for bearing 
inspection,
the  bottom , say 1/2 to 1 pint , of oil seems to be more of a slurry,  like
syrup instead of oil. The first time i thought the residue was the  
remnants of
the rebuild,ie assembly lube, break-in wear and so on. I have  removed all
bearing caps both times looking for anything unusual and i am  getting good
wear patterns. The second removeval did not seem to yield as  much slurry as
the first time. The engine is very fresh with virtually no  hours on it. I 
have
Valvoline VR1 20-50 this time in it with a bottle of  comp cams zdddp. 
Normal
or should i start freaking- out. Any input  ??.......Thanks in
advance......Mark  Pendy
