Exploding oil filter

My 72 c20 350 is having trouble keeping oil down. It's throwing it out at a rate of 4 quarts in 5 sec of engine running. The oil filter blows it's seal and that's it.

This is the original engine but I just put a new oil pump, lifters, valve springs, rockers and a complete gasket redu.

It blows as soon as it starts. Is it possible the oil pump is causing this? I can't run it long enough to get a pressure reading at the gauge.

Any ideas?
