If you weren't blowing blue smoke before, my guess is that an intake manifold gasket isn't sealing and you're sucking oil out of the lifter valley.

Agreed with nape. My bonehead buddy just had to re and re his intake after having a similar problem, because he decides he doesn't need to borrow my torque wrench to install his intake.

2nd time around, he comes over and borrows my torque wrench.
