I just changed the wires/plugs on my 90 sho, i had to remove the headers to get to the back plugs, anyways now i'm getting blue smoke out of my tail pipe. is this normal? i mean should it clear up after a bit or did something happen?

why the **** did you remove the exhaust manifold? this was not necessary, you may remove the intake to ease sparkplug changing, but not an exhaust manifold. and no it should not smoke, but it might just be oil that drained inot the cylinder while the plug was out.

geez. bad idea man. that oil probably had some dirt in it which is now all in ur cylinder. BAD idea. you should have sucked it out with something before you pulled the old plug out.

You might have just disturbed the oil that was sitting in your surge tank and runners. First time I did my V8 I thought something was wrong as it blew out smoke for 15 miles.
