Can you post how many miles it took for your rings to seat? It's been 3200 and I dont think mine are seated yet. Is there a way for me to know if my rings will be even "more seated"?

Losing oil, and some smoke comes out of the oil dipstick. I heard someone on here saying that it took almost 4000 miles for his total seals to fully seat. Just wondering if that was the norm.

i believe it was etx that told me on his fresh block he had 180 across the board cold, and not broken in. I may be confused about that though... with 8.8:1 compression and i think he had conventional je rings

WORD haha
anyway its been like 7000 miles and I get like 270 psi across the cylinders but it burns oil like a mofo. I don't know how this can be. I just recently like 1000 miles ago disabled my PCV system and routed both vents to a catch can and it got rid of my check engine light for IAC being outta whack. I don't know if its the rings or the pistons that's causing me to burn oil probably both.
anyway I've heard so many bad things about total seals and experienced it first hand so yeah next chance you get pop some hastings in there that's what I'll probably do.
