Hello, well we had the head done com pleat at machine shop, then we done a ring+piston boring's, good everything on the out side, when I tested it in the shop for about 30 min running time it wouldn't stop smoking only when I rev it up heavy light blue smoke would come out knowing that oil smoke my question is tomorrow when I take it for a drive will it seat the rings for it to stop, and what tape of drive should I drive take for this to work if any''' how long at what speed. Thank you sincerely. Bruce.

I would say there is something else going on here Bruce. The smoke might be acceptable if there were just a little puff on initial start, but that much smoke seems to me to be another larger issue, like the machine shop made a mistake or?
Newly rebuilt modern engines, correctly built, do not smoke.
