Default Here we go again? Roush

Someone needs to explain to me why Roush 427w crate engines eat so much oil? Mine is #795 and up to 4000 miles used 2 qts per 1000. The last 500 used 2 qts. Back to the installer for warranty work and he discovered #7 and 8 with verticle scoring in those two cylinders only. Back to Roush and it's been about two months(guessing). I'm no expert but it seems these motors aren't highly stressed even though it's over 500 hp. How hard is it to build a motor and have the rings seat? Apparently kinda tough. Has anyone heard of Craft's motors puking oil? Seems Craft will get my money next time! 209
