welcome to the forum!
how many miles are on the car? often times in high mileage examples of this motor the valve stem seals will wear out, and cause some oil smoke after cold starts.Escort GTR -- 11.87 @ 117.6 mph -- 320 HP / 325 Ft. Lbs. @ 23 PSI
... The first FWD BG with a Toyota E153 transmission conversion in the USA!
