Don't forget that a little smoke is kinda normal. A lot is a different story though.

i am only having a little smoke. i'll see how it looks when i vent it back into the carb, however on the pass side head is where i am getting the LOT of smoke. that's what i'll look at tomorrow.

If you are going to limp it along then start running some heavy weight oil ( like Diesel Oil ) to keep the pressure up.

i actually hooked up a pcv valve and connected it to the intake and BAM! no more smoke at all. i would still really like to do a ring and bearing rebuild.
