Chris, Have you ever tried using a collection can on the firewall filled with something to cause the foamy oil to loose the foam? I used an upside down GUNK can with a vent at the top and a tube going into the top. I ran a tube from the breather to the can. I used the can screw lid to empty it once in a while.

Actually , it's not burning up but rather gets thrown out the breather along the belly ( in spite of the "Stay Dry" breather kit from GPAC). My engine ( 2180 GPAC) has 102 hours since new.
