poor rebuild, debris in intercooler or intake from last failure, bearing failure leading debris from inside the engine.
wire range of possibilities really, what made you strip it in the first place?

funny noise
coming back from bridlington on motoway it made a funny like poof noise and smoke came out exhaust drove ok tho to get home,next day it started but sounded funny on start up took oil cap off and smoke was coming out. when it got stripped all piston rings were like melted into piston some worse than others so got re-bored and new pistons and bearings, an gaskets and so on.

The 2 favourites would be debris from previous blow up not washed out as stated above (Everything needs to be washed out, all the galleries in crankcase/head/crank etc) or insuficient piston/bore clearance i.e the borer/builder doing a poor job.

From my experience... if your keeping the car, the only way to do it properly is to replace everything... ££££ I know its costs... but it'll cost less in the long run...
