What fuel are you using? Has the car been run on WVO ? How many miles has it done?
If it has been on WVO then you may have the rings still stuck.
After you take it for a run, when you get home, leave it idling, take the oil cap off & see how much blow by you have . If smoke is coming out the breather like a steam train you may still have a ring problem. if it is a high mileage, this is to be expected.
