    Default Smoking Above 5500

    Car: 1995 Integra GS-R
    Miles: 168K
    Problem: Smoking above 5500

    I have had the car for about 60K and it never once smoked. I had piston to valve contact so I took the head off and replaces the valves, valve stem seals, head gasket and all the other gaskets your supposed to replace. After doing all of this the car started smoking at high RPM. The smoke is white/light grey. I am not loosing any coolent but i am burning oil. Well the gasket kit that I bought was from Advanced so it came with Felpro valve stem seals. I read on Honda-Tech that the seals springs are white/silver for intake and black for exhaust.The Felpro seals were all the same color so I just installed them in no certian order. Well like I said now it smokes. Could that be my problem that I mixed up the seals?

    If it helps compression was 215 215 220 210

    I spoke with Mainstream and they said that they could replace them today. I just wanted somemore opinions before I spend the money this afternoon.

    Thanks in advance
