New rings can be a PITA to break in properly with these blocks. Most racers scuff up the walls and then run the piss out of the engine from the get-go in order to bed them in.
Oil consumption goes down pretty quickly when it works. There are also horror stories about not being able to bed them in, and burning oil forever.
Measure the ring gap, and reuse if in spec...
