Ok I have been dicking with this for a couple days now and cannot get it to stop. As alot of you know I just got my motor rebuilt, if not well now you do. My problem is when I start it , oil blows out the oil pan gasket like crazy. I have replaced the oil pan gasket thinking maybe the cheap paper one that topline gave me was junk but still have the same problem. I dont have my oil pressure gauge hooked up yet but know that it has to be a extremely high oil pressure problem. How or what can I do to fix this?
any help appreciated thanks travis also if anyone would like to purchase the car its up for grabs. $4700 firm. I am getting married in three months and could use a little extra cash.

High oil pressure won't cause oil to blow out of the oil pan gasket. That is just a bath of oil in the bottom of the engine. The only way I know that oil will blow out of the oil pan gasket like that is due to too much crank case pressure. That normally only happens on high mileage motors with loose rings. Things I would ask:
Is the oil only coming from the back of the oil pan after driving? If so it may not be pressure build-up but just a bad seal between the pan & engine. Are the rings seated yet? Did the engine get a propper break-in? If not I wouldn't recommend boosting on unseated rings. Is your dip stick blowing out or are you getting a lot of oil from the valve cover vent that would indicate high crank case pressure? Hopfully some of these questions will lead you down the correct path. Good luck ![]() -------------------- In Loving memory of David T Crebo
