560SEL oil consumption question

Hi,

I am running 2 quarts of oil to 1,500 miles, and getting blue smoke on accelerating after stop. Valve stem seals are NEW (less than 3 k miles) and stopped the smoke for a while, now it is back, but less than before.

Am I losing the heads, and if so, how long do I have? How bad is this oil consumption?

Thanks for any help.
