build my motor now oil spewing everywhere?!
run down
build the b16 motor
cp pistons, crower rods, ACL bearings, STOCK bore
put the motor together and there is a light hint of oil right below the cam gears, thought it was the seal around the cam, take the oil rails and stuff off and move the rings back, boost the car and there is oil EVERYWHERE!!!!! =\ thought it was the HG cuz when i was boosting the fuel pump went south ( first time for a walbro i guess ) so i thought i blew the HG, cuz oil comes out and builds up between the head and the block trying to figure out what i could be, head torqued correctly and in patteren, block never overheated EVER, didnt leak before, only problem is there is a SLIGHT nick right above the dowel pin holes on the right side ( cam gear side) of the block
headgasket is fine right?
no damage to the head, you can see the exhaust valves are white cuz it ran lean when the fuel pump went south, im thinking it blew the HG but no smoke or anything/oil in coolant or vice versa......., im stumped on this one guys, help me out

You got the "right" oil rings on the piston ??? .... hopefully not too loose or upsidedown ...
