From your description (excessive blow-by on newly rebuilt engine), some possible causes are:

1. Cylinders bored out of round or too large for pistons
2. Improper cylinder honing
3. Idling during break-in, especially during initial period
4. Piston ring quality
5. Piston ring install errors

Please describe your break-in process.

Piston/ring brand?

What does the machine shop say?
