    someone forgot to put the rings in.
    someone forgot to set the oil pressure regulator ball and spring
    someone forgot to clean the oil return gallaries.
    someone put way too much oil in the engine
    someone else probably needs better mechanics.

    they were just outthere guesses, if it turns out to be any of those I'd be getting very very angry, and demanding a full refund if its not fixed in 48 hours Ditto.


    it might also be just a dodgy rocker cover gasket and the engines not filling its just leaking out onto the exhaust.
