Everything is great so far! The car was put up for the winter and I am in the process of adding a few more parts 
In the process I have been checking on everything and the motor appears to be in good health. Compression testing averaged 145psi per cyl and all of the plugs were in good shape gapped to .035" just like I left them. No coolant consumption either... Only thing that I am using a little bit of is oil, which is to be expected with this level of power output. Using as much methanol as I do when it mixes with the oil it breaks it down faster and causes a little more blow by. I did not have this problem until I switched to Mobile 1, so I am going right back to the 300V Motul, since the meth does not seem to break that down as easy or quickly.

Yes, I was... Oil would just get contaminated faster than the 300V of the same weight. Hence more blow by than with the Motul in the same oil change frequency of 3000 miles.
