Hey guys I'm new to this forum and im stoked on talking with fellow honda lovers.
Anyway, I'm having a problem with my newly built b20vtec. I was running the stock b20b motor for about a year and finally saved up enough scrill to go vtec. Now I bought a b16 head with around 80k on it and ferrea valves. Well me and my buddy (uti grad) swapped the heads, and after fixing timing problems and replacing seals, I'm sick of the motor. What makes it worse is now its smoking like crazy. I thought we hadn't put on the sandwich plate that converts oil to the head correctly, but after taking it in to get it looked at, it's on right. they said the head was sealed correctly as well.
1. When looking at the car, oil is leaing onto the exhaust underneath the car and causing smoke. The shop said my oil pan gasket needed replacing, but that doesn't really leek onto the exhaust.
2. When I get on it I look back and there's clouds of smoke coming out, but not out of the exhaust. Then when I sit at a light, theres more smoke coming up.
I have no idea what it could be. I was told it might be a clogged PCV system, but I'm not sure. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
