I replaced my head gasket now car smokes once engine is up to temp on at Idle. During acceleration no issues no smoke. No Knock, BLM 142 at Idle E85 125lb Injectors
 
Sounds like valve stem seals. Did you remove or replace them while you had the heads off?
 
Vacuum is highest at idle. Chuck is asking what the smoke is. Your BLM's warmed up in Park are telling you something.
 
BLM warmed up are 142. It’s steam and only happens at idle. I’ve decided to pull the motor to have it rebuilt installing second motor 4.1 484 block, Girdle 272ci, Champion Aluminum heads ported with ported stock intake, Comp 220/224 Cam, Je Pistons 9.1 Compression Forged Crank, BHJ Balancer And T&D Shaft Rockers. Looking to upgrade Turbo to a Precision Turbo 6870 or 7270 Next Gen from Hpt 6466.
