ok guys, i have some smoke coming out of my exaust....dam. we r pretty sure its the valve seals, it could also be the oil rings, but i aint losing no compression and the car still runs great, aside from the smoke. and it only smokes when a) the cars warmed up b)its been idleing then i give it gas. we already got the seals, and were prolly just gonna rebuild the whole engine, shit, might as well. i just wanted yalls opinions. thanks.

How do you know it's your valve seals for sure? Because my car has smoke coming out of the exhaust as well...but I was thinking that it's just because it's so cold here. Sure hope I don't have to rebuild my whole engine. :(

blue smoke you mean?
i just got half my engine rebuilt and the blue smoke is basically gone. oil is dripping into the combustion chamber. its most likely the seals. if your getting the whole engine rebuilt then it will be gone for sure
