"greetings from sunny spain.i

"greetings from sunny spain.i have purchased a wreck with a 4.3 v6 motor.the wreck i can repair no problem but the engine....hmmm.1,the engine turns over fine and runs but there s smoke coming out of what is rubber ports where the rocker cover is both sides(any ideas please)also the bottom end sounds like its about to commit hari kiri.correct me if im wrong.the engine itself is basically the same as a normal small block chevy so id be guessing right that either the main baerings gone or the conrods leaf bearings are shoty or the two together.thanks for all help(much appreciated)mr not so patient"
 
Compression test the cylinders

Compression test the cylinders. If it is good the oil burning may be from rolling the engine in the wreck.
