Default White smoke after high rpm

My ls motor sometimes blows out white after high rpm. Sometimes during and after high rpm my motor blows out white smoke then disappears and sometimes i smell oil burning.I'm thinking it might be valves seals are going bad but not 100% sure. Did anybody had this problem?

Have you checked the oil and coolant levels?

How does the engine oil look?

How does the coolant look?

White smoke is generally caused by leaking valve stem seals. A leakdown test would confirm.

Oil and coolant are good. I'll do a leak down test asap
