Ok i talked to a well known 420a guru. And he said it could be a head gasket washed teh rings out the ring gap is to much. Or the rings have moved or where put in inline.
Car was running rich but soon as the trans acted up if it is that the motor started smoking. Anyone have anyideas i assume i need to rip into the motor no mater what.
When i start the car it runs for about a minute and then it starts to smoke smoke out the exhuast and the breather could it be the turbo.

Ok took the plugs out and no oil on them either.really thinking it could be the turbo but did have smoking coming out of the breahter no smoke in the dip stick tube all coolant there and no coolent in oil. I am going to check the intercooler pipes for oil and if there is no oil the motor is coming back out still havn't checked the trans that will come out this weekend too.

Did you take it for a breakin run?
My bet is you have a lot of shit that is burning off. Check the valve that connects your tb to the valve cover, it might need replacing if positive pressure is passing through that valve.
(damn im rusty)
