Over pressurizing the crank case

Ok, so I pulled a bonehead move and over pressurized my crank case. Blew the oil disptick out and now the car smokes like there is no tomorow. Did I do any permenant damage or not?

how do you do that? I've had it happen to me before but i just thought that evos that make power do that.

What i did was bend the mouth of the dipstick thing a bit to make a more snug fit

Putting on a oilcatch can and was in hurry and hooked up the wrong line. Now my car smokes like a chimney, my friend who is a mechanic says it's I just blew a bunch of oil into the exhaust and it will take some time to burn off. Any input would be help full.

mine did the same thing. It isnt a problem, just get it off with simple green and you'll be fine.

I got all the oil out of the bay, but now my car is burning oil and smoking like Camel Joe. Hopefully it's just oil in the exh manifold and it's just burning off.
