ACCEPTED

If he is replacing the heads, he could only mean the the valve guides are worn. That price is awful cheap. He may be putting used heads on there. The most common way to repair that is to send your heads to the maching shop and let them rebuild them.

ok so then that means is it burning oil or is it leaking oil and what would that have to do with white smoke coming out of the muffler?
