I have not had oil return problems.
Glad to hear you say that, Alan,,, had me nervous there for a minute. We're taking a brand new SHP based 406 out for the first time this weekend. We haven't had any oiling issues so far, through a dozen dyno pulls and a little running time in the driveway, after installing it.
We'll keep an eye on it and our fingers crossed.
