Have 131 miles on a freshly built motor. Have .020" J/E, block steamed and cleaned, ported heads with matched intake, bottom end is studded, FM wide bearing with clearances running at .015-.019" on the mains, roller cam, and 62 turbo. Car runs great, idles nice, but in park at idle I notice a tint of blue smoke, not bad, but noticeable. Does not smoke other than at idle or park in drive at a stop. Oil level has not changed when I checked at 34 and 131 miles and NO smoke out the breathers. I am running an ATR check valve. My concern is where is the smoke coming from? Its a new 62 turbo (500 miles) and I was thinking turbo seal is on its way out, rings are still being seated, or ATR check valve? I even turned down the fuel pressure to 32 psi to see if its fuel related but it did not do much aside from running the BLM's up to 144.. Opinions are welcome..
