Default Smoke now with new cam?
Just got a TR 224 112 cam installed and the car seems to smoke now. it seems it does it at idle when siiting for a little bit. The car runs perfect just curious. only have 25 miles on cam. my buddy that installed it said it is normal especially with out a tune. please give some help.

mines kind of rich at idle since its not tuned yet.made sure I put teflon sealant on the rocker bolts since I have aftermarket heads.

What color smoke? If it's white/bluish it could be that your valve stem seals are leaking.
