You could have other issues such as loose piston to wall clearances that promotes oil loss.
Chances are, your rings are not going to seat properly.
Suggestion; re-ring time.

P.S. Poorly seated rings won't always smoke and yet they consume oil so the tale tell signs aren't always the best indicators.

I just talked to the guy that biult the engine and he said that sometimes it can take 3000 to 5000 miles before the rings seat. I guess they will seat soon. I have been driving the car at various loads, a few hard accelerations and some city and highway driving. It will probably seat soon. I hope.
