You have to be getting a ton of blow by in that to use that much oil. Looks like the walls of the holes has a ton of more than 1,k on it. Plus was the block honed to what pistons you are using in the motor.
May be the pic,s but looks like alot of just slick spots down in the walls also. Plus what does the plugs look like that you pulled from each hole. Then what about the color and if wet on the valve's after you pulled the heads off the block. Robert

Bret I am with you on this, that is why I ask him what the plugs was looking at from each hole. But then again Bret remember this motor was just done plus has less or just 1,k miles on it. It has to be getting some hel! of fuel down the holes plus who ever did the work on the block and honing had to do one bad job on it. Plus the OP had to have this car at WOT the full time. Robert

We ended up ball honing the cylinders, and they came out great. New set of total seal ap rings and the joe Gibbs 5w-30 breaking oil. I also ended up installing a -12 bung in the top of the catch can and ran the line to the -12 bung in the intake pipe of the supercharger. Trying to "pull" a little vacuum to help with ring seal. I think it is good to go now, no smoking at all. Car ended up making 737/657 out of the SI trim supercharger.
