White smoke is water. Bad head gasket, leaking intake gasket, cracked block,... Blue smoke is oil.

could just be that the cylinders are loading up a little bit from some unburned fuel... and when you get on it its burning off and out... that happened when i installed my first motor... just the cam profile... hope this helps...

My friends 347 has only 300 miles on it, and on standing stop hard acceleration, i notice a little puff from both pipes, but like mentioned already, could be cam profile, as long as its not excessive, dont worry, i see alot of cars at the track doing that, of course alot of the nossed ones mostly.
