I have a 2001 formula and I burn around 1 qrt for every 2000 miles. I tried fuel filters in the PVC line but that didn't help. I think it caused a service engine soon code. My next step might be a catch can? or mixing 5w50 with 10w50 oils.

Well if you have the LS6 intake you will probly have the LS6 valley cover which has the revised PCV setup compaired to the 98-00. I just replaced my valley cover when I changed over to the LS6 intake so i guess i'll see if it has any changes in oil useage. Before I was useing around 1 - 1.5 Qts. per 3000 miles.
