based on what I knew of the oil consumption issue was that it was primarily due to cheap rings which would be included in both a long and short block... when you're breaking in a new motor, synthetic oil isn't the best. the rings needs to set and it's best if your first two oil changes (at 1,500 miles and again at 3,000 miles) should be regular motor oil. you really don't need to go beyond 3k miles for a break in period and you can go over 4k rpm after that first 1,500 because you don't want a wear line in your cylinders, you just don't want to WOT it above 4k rpms... it's best to go full RPM quite a few times during that period, just not at full throttle...
hopefully your new motor isn't bad, but the varying opinions on the break in period surprise me... it's like the crazy random methods for getting the hiccups to go away
