V-6 or V-8. Does the oil look milky? That would mean a head gasket or possibly intake gasket failure.
Running it that way will mean an engine failure soon.

You are installing an engine with a 23 year old engine/head gasket and its been siting without running since the car wrecked and you expect it to last? You will be lucky to get a year out of it and not have a major failure. Heck you could blow out the rear main in a few weeks. Replacing parts on an engine that is out should not be expensive. For 5-$600 you could do oil pan, front and rear main seals, head and intake gaskets and have an engine that is ready to run a 100,000 miles.
