Here the quick back story
Back in 2003 my dad and I bought a used 351C and had it completely rebuilt. I was planning on swapping out the 302 for the 351 in 2004 but I ended up going to college and life got in the way. Fast forward till now.... I took the car to the shop for the swap which included the c6 Tranny. The engine idles perfectly fine and starts right up.
but... once you turn it on, it starts blowing blueish smoke on the left exhaust (no H pipe) It takes about 1 minute warming up before it blows smoke. Do y’all think it’s the valve stems? I figure they might have dried up after not running for 18 years. I have videos of it as well
