I would check the PCV system and see. At that if everything is good, leak down test and see if its in the top end or bottom end. Gm does say its okay for these cars to burn 1 QT of oil every 1500 miles.

Are the threads exposed in the intake ports from porting them? Did you seal the rocker bolts with teflon paste to prevent leakes?
