Default Honda VTI (SI) (B16A2 Engine) serious problem

Hi,

I have a B16A2 mounted Honda Civic and I have a strange situation.

I have rebuilded the engine (new pistons, rings, bearings, valves, guides etc..) a few months ago because of the blue oil smoke coming from the exhaust.

After rebuilding, the engine still does the same and I am lacking oil about (1lt/1000km) which is really a huge amount. I am going crazy as I can't find any other reason to cause that problem to go on in a rebuilded engine.

Please help me.

Do you see any oil dripping on the ground?

I actually don't have oil dripping problem but I have the problem especially at high rpms (when vtec kicks in). I also have some of it aat lower rpms but kicking the throttle is the key then I get the blue smoke.(Especially 6000-8000)

Are you able to find the areas of where oil may be leaking from?
