Default smoke coming out of engine after seafoam ?

I just seafoamed my car, 2000 camaro z28 with about 40k miles. I have just placed seafoam in the engine and the gas tank. drove 200 miles, did an oil change and started her up. there was lots of white smoke coming out of the engine, is that normal ? The smoke smelled like burnt new oil. This is my first time using GC 0w-30 after using the mobil 1.

is this normal ? thanks

So it's coming from the engine and not the exhaust? Did you spill any oil on the motor itself, because that's what would happen.
