Lets say you do take it apart, pull the pistons out, and if things look really good, you might get away with a new rings with the same pistons. If they dont look good, just go with a stock sleeve and piston kit. If its blowing fuel out the exhaust, then Id agree with the post below and needs to be burned out with a long work period. But if its truly engine oil,, its leaking into the cyl somewhere,, either bad rings, or valve guides. Just sounds like it needs to be looked at closer,,, that way you know what you have exactly and can eliminate any possible problems. I got a 93 7.3 ford, that started running rough,, smoked white and blackish out the pipe, rough idle, had the pump rebuilt, and it ran alot better,, but, about 500 miles later, it popped the headgaskets. New headgaskets and a good cleaning, and it runs with dependability. But, I belive the problem started with my 7.3 was the headgasket starting to go. Back to the 560,,,, there is only 4 bolts holding 300+psi of cyl pressure on each cyl,,, its not much to hold em down,, it will hold for a while,,, but eventually they pop. They are famous for it. But, can be assembled to last a while longer,,, JMHO. Chad
