oil psi problem!!, what the ****!!! Options

[treydawgs4g63T]

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

If you didn't use the bearing to cover the hole, you would have NO oil pressure. The bearing was installed to cover the oil hole, since the front balance shaft is removed. This wasn't the way I was wanting to do it, but how I had to do it after I found out the old bearings had to be removed anyway.

True, you must cover the oil hole with the bearing if the balance shaft itself is not creating resistance in the pumping system. But even so it shouldn’t create an unmanageable amount of pressure. I have ran 3 engines with this procedure done, and even with a brand new oil pump it wont cause enough pressure to cause what your describing.

If it's leaking by the tranmission, check the rear main seal or the gasket between the block and the rear main seal holder (I can't remember the name...)

Sounds like this may be your problem by everything your describing. I highly doubt you have blown out numerous oil pan gaskets with engine crankcase pressure. The rear main consists of the rear main seal housing, the rear main seal, the rear main seal gasket, & the rear main seal retainer. May want to take a closer look around that area before you go JB welding the oil pan on there
