Ok I have a k24 bottom with built internals been in the car for like 2 weeks the engine is sokin really bad its basically continuous smoke someone driving behind me said it was a white with a blue tint the head on the car is a k20a2 and I've never ran the head and need help figuring out if the valve stem seals are bad or if its the oil ring on the piston! The compression on cylinders 12 and 4 are 250 and cylinder 3 is 275 I checked the cylinder through the spark plug hole and cylinder 3 seems to be the only moist cylinder with fresh oil on it please if you have any advice it would be appreciated and the car smokes while. Any throttle is engaged not at high rpm but whenever there Is throtte

who built the motor?
I'd have them do a leak down test to see if its a valve seal or piston ring.
