blue smoke on start-up i just started my car and a cloud of blue smoke came out for a second... anyone have any idea what this could be?? i just got done putting my motor and pp 5.3's on also, my abs imop came on but i think it is because of the line on the back of the intake, almost possitive.. what could have caused the smoke though... thanks

If it's only on start up, then oil is seeping in to the cylinder probably from the valve seals like mentioned ealier. If it smokes all the time, Id think the rings are not sealed...

i heard you are suppose to run the hell out of it right when you put it in... it was sitting up at the house for a couple of days but i m not to sure that would matter is it isnt a long time
