Default i know this isnt normal...

So I was driving home from school today in my 88 camaro with a ls1 and t56. And after I go into my neiborhood I gun it and after I let off there was a good sized cloud of white smoke behind me. Wasn't thick however it was noticable. I installed a zex nitrous kit (75 shot) the other and sprayed twice only on a third gear pull though. Im not sure my plugs are designed for nos use and I doubt they are. I checked the oil when I got home and it seems fine, goldish color. Never had any problems with this engine so far and tbh im not sure if it is the engine. Any ideas feel free to chime in.
