Evo 8 smoking after kelford 272 Cam install, PLEASE HELP
i made sure all the rockers are on, nothing is burning off the engine, just out of the exhaust
Drive until the engine is completely warm. Shutdown for 30 minutes and then start the engine. If the exhaust puffs a big cloud at start that then goes pretty much away, it is valve seals.
No matter how long you run it it smokes especially at idle, thats when it seems to smoke the most
the rockers are all on the smoke is just out the exhaust and there is no engine noise
So i installed a set of kelford 272 cams, set the timing right on all the marks, all the rockers are on, everything is torqued down properly, and the car ever seems to run fine. Now, it smokes basically all the time with a blueish tint but smells like un burnt fuel.... also my vacuum is down to 4-9 hg.... I removed basically everything to recheck.. no vacuuum line are off andf the smoke is coming out of the exhaust only... No leaks that i can find anywhere,.... I NEED INPUT? HELP IMMEDIATELY

My guess would be valve seals. Especially exhaust since they take the most beating with heat and all. Also your kelfords have more lift so where the seal was stopping before is not the same.
Look man I don't mean to be a d**k but I saw the videos you posted about this issue and you getting on the car like you showed probably didn't help the issue I would stop driving it like you stole it and park it, and wait till it gets tuned.
