Is this a new combination or has it been running?

As suggested above check for vaccum leaks and cut open the oil filter and inspect its contents.
Check the distributor.
Are you getting oil up to the top end?
You may have bad rocker arm and pivot ball if that is the style of valve train you have.
Is there anything on the outside of the engine rubbing? Flywheel or balancer?
Check the crankshaft for excessive thrust clearance.
You may have spun bearings.
12 years on the engine it may be time for a rebuild.
