If you're lucky, the PCV is jammed open.

I'm in need of some engine info.I recently professionally had my 401 rebuilt top to 
bottom.We fired it up ran good with 80 oil pressure. Started it again at this point it 
only has headers on it. We noticed on the left bank header oil is seriously coming out the 
end.The next day i had the dull exhaust completed. fired it up ex-stream smoke pouring out 
both sides it doesn't appear to be blue oily smoke.The engine sounds sick it wont rev up 
to it's full potential sounds like possible a dead cyl. Not at first but now the car wont 
go under it's own power put it in gear it dies. The engine at most has 30 minutes idle an 
revving time. I'm afraid this guy may have possibly way over revved it.Oil pressure now is 
down to 40 pounds. Dose anyone have any ideas on whats going on? Thanks Ed for the use of 
your great site. Harold nash126@xxxxxxxxxxx 262-903-3993 08/15/2011 02:46:42 AM
