I don't know that you have a problem. If the engine hasn't run, I wouldn't expect the rings to be seated. That takes high cylinder pressure.

On an engine dyno, they will measure blowby to determine if the rings are seated. It may take a while of running under load to seat them. Run a conventional oil like Rotella T, and load the engine hard and often without bogging. Keep the revs down somewhat, and vary them, at least for a while.
