Well...I just took out the #2 and #3 spark plugs and I found oil on both of them...and some on the shelf (on the head under the spark plug)...my neighbor came over and said he seen a bit of blue in the smoke...another thing I noticed is the damper is very wobbly @ idle!!!

Hey Folks!...Whelp,I bought a SB 350 30over for my 69ss a little while back and at that time the motor was smoking something fierce when I first fired it up...I let the guy know what was going on he said,pull the motor and bring it back...I wasn't to happy I had to pull it again but,I did.He tells me the heads he bought from summit (World Product) were sent with no valve seals!...so he put valve seals in,he said the rings seated also...I put the motor back in last weekend and son of a bitch,it's still smokin'!...not as bad but,still bad enough to make the car look like a piece of shit....the motor has about 125mi on it.The reason I bought this motor is because on my old motor I dropped a valve.Now,being that I dropped a valve (no#5 cyl.) is it possible that the smoke I see now,is the reminisce of the oil that made it's way into the exhaust? (Smoke is coming out of both pipes)...could the fact that there were no valve seals mess something up?...the oil pressure is steady at 50-60psi...it'll runs at 170-180 deg all day....I put a white cloth in front of the tail pipe and seen no oil on it (Like I would have before)...it's a white smoke...I put my hand in front of the tail pipe and I could see moisture on it but,not much (I don't see antifreeze)...it's got a 750 Edelbrock (To big,I know)...I emailed him about 5days ago and he never got back to me,maybe he thinks it'll go away but,it's not!.Hey,any help would be appreciated!
 
Thanks,
Jack
