better step up to some 20/50 or some 15/40 Rotella

 

i run 20-50 normally but on the first 500 miles after bottom end or head work i run 10-30 and always valvoline and yeah i change oil at 500 miles past any internal work and during that time i ck for loose bolts and crap i overlooked or stuff that loosened up
i will always burn some oil in the first 3K but like i said i have seen it take up 2 8K

you can try to put some a/c die in oil and look around for the neon green color a black light really makes it shine but if you are loosing oil and its not leaking its burning so u haven't broken it in yet or rings are not in right maybe upside down

 

you sure do know your stuff..

 

did you offset the rings when you installed them?

 

i have torn the yoters down so Manny times also my dad has ben a wrench my hole life and owns a shop in San Diego that i managed for 2 years before i moved out to AZ so i got to learn a lot growing up but I'm all over the form because I'm sick so just hanging out on comp i have posted like 6o times since yesterday hahah

forum*

 

i've been off work sense early friday morning dont go back to work until wed... just been setting around ... doing nothing ..

 

hope you didnt install the ring up side down.. did you stager (off set each set of rings)
