Kinda hard to understand. How many miles were on the motor when it started smoking?

The first miles there should have been smoke from all the lubrication used during assembly

did you tune your car after the rebuild? what kind of rebuild you talking about? new pistons, rods, head, cams and all the good stuff? if so you were suppose to have a break in period. seems like your rings might of not seat in properly and you are burning oil
