okay we just fired up my friends LS that he had rebuilt replaced pistons and rods. bored out a little.
Well anyways, we fired up the car, it turned on perfectly!

suddenly 20 sec later white smoke flowed out the exhuast! hella white smoke, like a fog machine X3 !!! We left the car runnning for a lil longer but it never went away. It smelt like exhaust and fireworks. I checked the dip stock and it had some foamy white ---- on it.

What can this be?
we have all brand new seals and head gasket etc. We are gonna drain the oil tomorrow and try unsing new oil. I really dont know how my friend built the engine i just told him the things he needed and things needed to do.

What should we check what can it be?
