I rebuilt my 944 2.5 NA race motor winter 2016 and a installed an IJ Teflon crank scrapper along with two other 944 race pals.

Checking the level 2+ hours after shut down we are all at the proper level. After a day+ we gain close to .25 quarts on the stick. Our hunch is the zero clearance scrapper is slowing flow into the pan.

There is oil in the oil passages in the internal oiling system of the block that will drain out eventually.

In a Cleveland I'd be surprised if it was even close to 1/2 qt. though?
