What are you doing as far as PCV system/catchcan? To install the E2 or E2-X systems you can reduce ring flutter and maintain stable rings if you have not run too long with the consumption issue as they utilize 2 separate evacuation suction sources so it improves the PCV systems functions to always evacuate, even when under acceleration and WOT when your OEM system does not evacuate.

How the engine was broken in during those first critical miles of running determine if the rings seat properly before the hard galze covers the cross hatch or not. If the rings did not properly seat during the first few hundred miles that window has long past and it will take a tear down and re-hone to cut the glaze. The leak down test is a must to see what is actually happening inside your engine (not compression test).

Installing a E2 or E2-X system does on some cases allow the rings to free up and seal properly if the cause is from oil ingestion causing varnish and deposits to build in the ring lands preventing rings from moving freely, usually you will know in 500-1000 miles if that is the cause.

The GM techs break in instructions are a great way to ensure proper break-in while what the consumer gets in the owners manual will make it iffy if the seat properly or not:
