Blow by on a 6.2 & 6.5 is normal and expected. Now in order to control it from pushing oil out the seals you must have the CDR Valve properly hooked up and functioning. If it is bad or improperly installed or if your venting to atmosphere then yes you'll have excess pressure in the oil system which will find other routes other than the CDR to escape. Don't vent to atmosphere and properly hook up the CDR and you will eliminate your oil leaks.

Ancient video, I knew what was wrong with the truck. Yes crankcase pressure is typical on a 6.2/5, but not at the pulsing rate this engine was doing in the video and almost blowing the oil cap off. Piston was split in half. That engine isn't even in the truck anymore.

If you’re impressed with the light output of one set you should replace the lowers with a set as well. And when you do ask them about the harness for a set of 4 lights. It runs all 4 as low beam and high beam together. So you’d have four low beams and four high beams working together. It’s actually amazing how well you can see. And if it’s aimed well you won’t bother anyone. I know from experience now. Have them on my 85 Camry with four squares like yours but I think mine. Side by side on each side though from factory.

Isn't 16-18psi of boost *way* too high for reliable operation in a 6.2... maybe you can get by with that on a late block or an optimizer block dunno. 10psi is about the limit and IIRC 6.2 trucks with stock turbos have a 12psi overboost warning. The banks turbo kit is actually intentionally too small to get over that much boost... at all.
