Please Help, New Engine Install Oil Pouring Out
Need Help. I swapped my spent 22r for a new 22r with Street RV head on my 86 4x4 ext cab but when I crank the newly installed engine, oil pours out the back at the bell housing. I would estimate oil flow rate out of the truck onto the ground at 1qt every 5 seconds. Oil does not leak when the engine is off, only when it is cranking. What in the world could cause this? There is a rear main installed and it looked great when the engine went in. All help is very much appreciated!

Bad Rear Main?
That was my first (grumpy) thought when I saw the oil pouring out, but I have never heard of a bad rear main straight from the engine shop. Is there [I]any[I] other option??

Bad Rear Main?
Ohh MAN! Please check out the pic, I thought there was one in! IS that gold ring around the crank not the rear main?? http://www.putfile.com/pic.php?img=5440292

THANK YOU!!
I ordered this engine from some folks in Oregon-- fitting an Oregonian would save the day.... err night.
3 Galley plugs, REAL good info to have. Thank you again!

i can remember 3, but there may be more, just make sure you have a mechanical oil gauge when you starting/cranking, when i was priming my rebuilt 22r i was getting about 20-40 psi when cranking with the spark plugs out....

No Kidding! No surprise what my day is looking like-- separating the tranny from the motor and installing that galley plug off the old block (thank goodness I hadn't turned it in yet!).
What is the best (read: easiest) way to separate the tranny from the block? Looks like 4 12s holding the front driveshaft, slide the shaft to the side, unbolt the bell and let 'er rest on the torsion bar? Is that even a good idea?
My wife is gonna love this on Mother's Day-- hope she likes the brisket I've been all night cooking.
