Default blue smoke on 98 coupe with b20 swap

Ok long story short. Shop did a b20 swap (save the flaming lol). Went to the shop to pick up the car. There was some issues with it. The most that concerened me was blue smoke coming out the exhaust. The other was the wierd *** idle leap at startup.

He said a few things (more like alternated) about the smoke.

1. To keep it running and it should go away... it's an oil thing or something. (i'm thinking this one because of the blue smoke)

2. It might be the cat I have on there.

3. It's the aftermarket stuff I have on there.

I'm trying to figure out which is which. Yeah so basically I told him to take care of the smoke issue before I pay for the swap.

haha I hope that ain't it. The rings is basically why I got rid of the other engine for this swap. Cause well labor kills now. Yeah im not about to accept it till it works. The motor is pretty clean tho... but who knows.

Ok it turned out to be the rc 310 injectors. Which I kind of figured it was yesterday and mentioned it. Glad he tried it. Thanks to FMRRACING for the help out here.
