Milk in valve covers

What FED 387 said about the Pennzoil being the worse about milking. I run a fuel injection setup on my sbc dragster and in heavy humidity 40-50% or more I'd still have some stuff in the valve covers. I would pull the exhuast vac off the valve cover after running the motor up to 200 degrees while I loaded it up in the trailer and I have a 12 volt mattress air pump that will push or pull air that would help remove the moisture even faster. I went from changing oil after 10 or 12 runs(twice a month) and now I wait until I start feeling guilty which is usually 4 or 5 races(I could go longer judging by the way my oil looks). I also have a System 1 oil filter so which I check after a race just to keep an eye on things.
