this may be a basic question but...
what are the negative effects of having too much oil in your engine?

The level of oil gets to close to the spinning crank shaft it will whip air into the oil. You don't want air in the oil.
Too much oil will also lower HP output.

Yep, don't want to do that, if its a newer car, all sorts of issues can come about with different emissions controls and such.

that would be whipping by the crank..air whipping with oil = foam...loose definition 
Vacuum systems can get plugged up on newer cars.
GREAT REPLIES.
To much oil will get whipped by the crank which is resistance and cause a HP loss. The resulting foamed oil is something the engine doesn't like and if the level became low due to a high RPM run, the engine will be unhappy sucking up foam and show a pressure loss.
