Check the spark timing first. Having it retarded will really kill performance. Timing can change suddenly if the timing belt skips a tooth. If that has happened, you should put on a new belt immediately to avoid having it fail completely.

i checked the timing and its perfect all around and i have no idea how many miles are on it the gauge cluster is from a different car but i think the engine has around 70k tho And yes for an engine that has a max of 4.5 qts the dipsh*t put more oil in it then drove the sh*t out of it and had it overheat so i have no idea what to do other then that.
