Did you have a leak-down test done on the short block while the heads where off.?
Assenmacher sells a tool I use, that bolts to the block over the bore and lets you use your leak-down tester run a pressure/leak test on each pot.
Any pot leaking over 15% is candidate for rings or at least, further investigation.

Good reading is 2% to 12%.

ATF will white smoke, like a lot of steam, but hangs around longer.
