Breaking in an Engine

I was wondering if its normal, when breaking in an engine, for it to smoke. Like on start up, and sitting at a stop light...nothin' really major, just a puff here and there. It doesn't even show up on the dipstick. I recently got my motor back from Nu-Tek,and I was just wondering. I was told once I broke the motor in, that'll go away. I was told this by Billingsley Racing.

What you're actually probly doing is burning spilt oil that is on the manifolds ect.... which is normal and will go away. Oil always gets spilt =)
