Seroius issue!
Seroius issue! Ok, Gotta a 2002 SS here with a .242/.244 cam, headers, lid, exhaust! Before the cam install car had no probs! After cam install, a big problem! Car blows white smoke! Not crazy amounts, but at idle you can see it and after initial take off it puffs it out pretty good! Hers the crazy part; AFR at ide is 14.4-14.9; AFR at WOT is 12.7 and the car runs great and pulls strong! Did a compression test! All 8 cylinders read between 165-175 PSI! Plugs look great after a run with no oil or anything! Coolent levels are full, oil levels are full!
Dunno WTF to think on this one! I can post of copy of the tune if needed! Using HP tuners! Any ideas?

Still sounds like seals, all it take is one damaged seal; new or not. Try unbolting the headers and check the exhaust ports to find which cylinder has leaking seals.

I agree with the seals... second thing I would check is lifters... buddy had one break on his mustang, and it was smoking so bad a few weeks ago, he got pulled over and asked why it was smoking so bad. True story 
i second the valve seals, if they dont click all the way into place they will come loose as soon as you turn it over the first time. ESPECIALLY if they have been replaced. Could be a simple mistake with a simple fix.
