Default little bit of white smoke :-0

I went today to let the car run for a few and put some more gas in it.. well i popped the hood as i let it idle and notices a little bit of white smoke coming from the back side of the valve cover, its the back right. it seems to be coming out from between the valve cover and head and blowing down, but it may be from the head itself.. here is a pic of where... you cant see the smoke though, stupid phone..

its probably coming from the breather, and thats blow by which is not uncommon (within reason) for built motors with larger clearances but if you have a stock motor that usually indicates that your rings and/or ringlands are not in good shape

Tim,

Get a leak down & compression test done. That motor has been through several owners before it was properly tuned.

Good Luck,
