Getting the Wheeling Fever

i'm losing a quart of oil every 500 hundred miles or less. there are no leaks to be seen. this engine was just rebuilt last jan. the compresion test reads 120 150 150 150 1-4. lokking at the cylinder walls you can still see the honing marks. and the piston are already coking. what do ya'll think. i sure as heck don't want to get into this engine again im going to check the valve lash to see if there set the same. im using Q state syn 4x4. fixing to stop that it is going expensive at the rate i'm adding oil. not much smoke from the exhaust. you do see it in the morning when it is cool and humid.
thanks.
