I did read over that singletoe thread and REALLY want to do do that. It just takes time we don't really have.
Thanks for the feedback. Will update this thread as we progress.

Five quarts? Wow. How much blow by do you have going on?
If it were me I would go to Walmart, buy some Marvel Mystery Oil for $4, pour 6 to 8 ounces in the crankcase and drive it and see if that slows down the rapid burn off. Ultimately though the replacement of the engine is your best bet.
