Did you put the oil squirters in each cylinder? i put one together, found out about them by accident had to tear it back down completely to put them in.

As rollytiger said,
Oil Squirters is a popular oversight, as is putting the squirters themselves in but not adding/tightening the Oil Squirter Bolts.

Another thing to double check is that you have a piston pin clip in each side of the piston.
Sounds obvious, but you'll be surprised how many people rush the rebuilds and overlook that tiny little component.

Failing that, I'd still double check you do actually have every single baring in place.
2x Thrust Bearing.
5x Main Bearing (Block Side).
5x Main Bearing (Cap side).
8x Rod Bearing.

If you haven't already found it, I have a full step-by-step guide on how to build the engine here on Steam.

Follow that to the letter and you can't go wrong.

Looks like I just saw a post from you on Discord regarding the same issue and someone looked at your save and pointed out the issue?

So, to answer all the questions, it was in fact the piston pin clips, I missed a few, I did ask this question on the discord and a very nice person took my save and found the problem.
Thank all of you for your help
