did you check the piston to wall clearance? did you have ring ring gaps? and spaced the ring 180 from each other?

Also if the rings are installed backward this will cause oil to pass the ring and into the chambustion chambler.

during the break in period everything is tight, you shouldnt have any blow by to cause it to smoke.

what type of rebuild did you do? re-ring, or complete?

did you check all of the clearances?
