RE: 390 oil loss mystery

I had the same problem. Too much oil to the heads and is drawn down valves and for intake gets burnt with smoke, with exhaust(yes, it can get sucked down the exhaust...think exhaust flow, not pressure), no smoke. You must restrict oil to the heads, plus type of valve seals affect it and did you install oil drip trays? Modern rings may not fully seat for 1000 miles or more, although most of your oil loss is probably down the valves.
This thread, so far...
