Default smoking swap, opinions

Okay, so I have a 91 Honda Civic DX hatchback, and I'm running OBD0 chipped PM6, CRX Si dizzy and injectors w/ resistor box, the engine, OBD1 JDM d15b vtec. This has been a swap that took a while (mainly due to my lack of time from week to week). So, I started it up last night and it was purring nicely, took it out for a spin, nice, okay, smoke... so apparently the guy helping me with this swap put a little too much oil in there (because as I checked it was more than full mark on the dipstick). So I drained the oil and put in the proper amount and went for another spin, a lot less smoke, but still a little and more when I get on it. My thoughts are, just working out the kinks of the half a mile romp with too much oil and the fact that the half a tank of 93 octane has been sitting there doing nothing for three months, I didn't end up driving it more than a mile after the oil change last night just because it was late and I had to get home.

Opinions (and yes I know it could be bad rings, but I am hoping that it isn't)?

nobody has an opinion? c'mon, with all of the smart people on here someone has to at least have an idea of whether or not I'm on the right track
