Jason, it surges when coasting at 40mph with the cruise off. The car has
about 5500 miles on brand new old stock euro heads.  What do you mean by
valve seats? Are you talking about the valve stem seal or the thrust
washer?  I really do not think that is the engine that is causing it
because there is no smoke at start up or under full acceleration.  Plus
with the amount of smoke it produces I'm sure i would consume oil if it was
the engine.  The smoke is like fog does not have any blue in it and does
not smell like antifreeze.  It is the same color like if I were to burn out
with my tires. When it does decide to smoke it will fog up the entire
intersection to a point where you will not be able to see any cars and will
hang around the intersection long after i leave.
