What pistons did you go with?

Why did you have to file fit the rings? You don't have to file fit the oem rings.

Tell Calvin I have a LS motor he can buy that runs great

so the motor was punched out and you used stock sized pistons? Theres your problem, oil is seeping past the undersized pistons.

Are they honda pistons or oem replacement?

Honda doesn't sell 30 over pistons. Only .20 over.

Somethings not adding up here.

oem replacement and .30 over dont go together. thats more than likely your problem, as jarrod has been trying to point out.
