What could it be if my car keeps smoking after cam install.

The reason I ask this is because I'm replacing the valve seals and mentioned it in another thread that I recently posted that I recently installed a camshaft not to mention a high volume melling oil pump and imediately upon startup I noticed the light blue smoke not whole lot but enough to annoy the **** out of me and off and on it smokes alot on startup. I figured it was the valve seals since I replaced the valve springs. If it ain't the seals why wasn't it smoking with the stock cam. I always drove it and it never smoked stock.

Exact same thing happened to me, It was the valve seals. I just pulled the plugs and it was obvious which plug was burning oil so i just replaced the seals on that cylinder and all is good!
