on the oil thing: yes, but also check to see your send/return lines aren't leaking--they often do. Did you use new crush washers on everything?

ALso do a compression test (just to be safe) and make sure you have all the vac tubes connected---there's several in particular that if disconnected, will make you burn oil for some reason.
