Using tons of oil

[Tx_Diablous]

This is a new rebuild with less than 4K on it and she is drinking oil like me with a case of beer on a hot summer day. It is not smoking and the plugs look text book. I pulled the engine again and replaced the valve seals and that did no good. Comp is 185 to 190 on all eight cold with no oil. Oil in the intake just past the TB but none in the air tube. She runs like a bat out of hell with no smoke on WOT but sometimes on start up but not every time. PVC system seems ok but I am going to do more checks tomorrow to make sure it is right. Anyone ever come across anything like this. I am sure the bottom end and the valves are ok and this motor will plant you in the seat so I just do not think its the base engine. What do you guys think?
:shrug:

mine is the same. 10k on rebuild. It is forced induction I do get some smoke at wot not much at all though. Alot through pcv though could just be loose tolerances between pistons and block so we burn some but not much. I'm adding a quart every 2-3k

dam both of my cars don't even eat a whole qt in 3k miles, and both motors are built

 

[Tx_Diablous]

I could live with 1Q in 3K but not 2Q in 100 miles. That is what I mean by tons.

make sure you are checking your oil after 20 min of eng running. the heads can hold up to 3qts of oil before it drains back
