I am getting a bit worried that the $3000 i spent is going downhill. I have noticed recently that it smokes white smoke at idle pretty good for the first few minutes it starts. I also have noticed that i have oil coming out of the exhaust manifold to head seal. It comes out right between cylinder two and three. I did a compression check today. The motr has 64 miles on it. It was warm when done. #1-145,#2-160,#3-155,#4-150. These were all with 10 cranks each. I was bymyself so i couldnt cranks until they pressure was at its max. I am just a little worried something is wrong here. I have weiseco 8.5:1 forged pistons in there. What should the compression be running at?

P.S. I havnt seem to notice any difference in the way the car is running.

let me know
