thing is smoking its ass off and compression/leakdown was good, brand new valve guide seals, etc....

make sure you have a big enough oil drain and it has a good path to the oil pan. also make sure your oil level is not too high.

looked at the drain line and it comes down but then seems to go straight for like 3 or so inches because it comes around the downpipe....it almost looks as if it comes like .5" up before it reaches the pan but i couldnt tell from the angle i was looking at....i dont have a jack right now but i will get to it as soon as i can and see if this could be the problem...
