Default NEED help with leaks..in cylinder head

make long story short.....got head from local ported shop, put on head burns oil like hell, took off oil in every piston and #2 is the worse...though is the guides sent it back to the shop...its check out good...I have it check a second time at a different shop guides check out good...I have oem valve seal on...we check the block, head gasket...all good?? what could be the problem(s)??? the only thing that we see wrong is that looks like they scar the valve itself??

I'm having the same problem with mine, but instead its leaking coolent from the head/block. Hopefully the resuface I got will work. But yeah....

Did you replace the valve seals w/ new ones? And if the valves is scar'd, might as well get new ones. Yeah, also look into your rings and do a leak test.
