This happened 2 times this week. I check my oil every morning(I dont know why!), but when I would check it, the dipstick would be up about 2-3 inches. It wouldn't come out but it would come up. What would cause this..... high oil pressure.

High SUMP pressure...
or is it possible that some green mech. put an NA dipstick in place of the turbo dipstick?
Let's see a pic of that dipstick.

blow by? or was not just secure to begin with.....

I had this same problem and I found out that the bolt that holds the dip stick was loose and the vibration was causing it to pop up.

1.) Vibration
2.) Blow-by due to poor crank case ventilation or headgasket. Happened to me last year in my other 86. When you take the dipstick out does it puff smoke or do you feel pressure from there?

Sounds like your have your crank AOS hose and Idle Stabalizer hose reversed at your intercooler pipe and MAF tube so you boosting your block. Follow the hoses.
