My experience with low tension rings...
The rings that came in my stroker kit were low tension. I did not consider that they could be any thing other than standard rings. When I did a leakdown test I found that it was at 20%. All of that blowby was pressurizing the crankcase and blowing oil all over.

I will give Ross the benefit of the doubt and assume they did not send you a low tension set, but a few minutes spent doing a leakdown test can eliminate this as a source of the problem. Also, you have not mentioned some of the other problems that are common with low tension rings such as; blowing out lower intake gaskets/seals, blowing the dipstick out of its tube, and oil loss through the front and rear crank seals.

Right now I would think that a small separator should work well for you.
