Hey guys, when I "gun it", I am getting white smoke out the tail pipes.
My two theories are:
Fuel delivery problem, maybe too rich or too lean,
or coolant leaking into the piston.

What do you guys think?

Oil is blue

Fuel is BLACK

Coolent, is usually white

Coolant in your piston....maybe not. Hahahaa, anyways look at the smoke kinda off to the side and see if you see a slight blue tint. If so then its oil. If not, its coolant.

Do you have cats? If not then its normal (I think, not really but almost all catless LS1 emit nice cloud of smoke when gunning it)

Yeah, I have cats. Maybe I'll have to bite it and take it into the shop just to make sure.

Do you have alot of miles on the car. Has it ever been overheated? White smoke is not good. Could be blown head gasket or cracked heads.

The blue smoke is probably you valve seals, and the black is from too much fuel.

keep a close eye on coolant level

check your oil frequently for milkshake look

at idle or if you rev her up while parked and you see the smoke maybe have someone rev it up and smell the smoke, if has a sweet smell and is white it is coolant.
