Default HELP!!! New Supercharged motor...smokes bad

Hey guys, I need help!!! I just installed my new motor...Right at ignition, it started smoking. Not like burning off the grease smoking, like burning smoking. I looked back and can't think of anything that it could be.

It idles fine. Ides smooth, except for the lope of the cam. It is a pure whiteish/grayish smoke, and doesn't really smell like oil, more like new exhaust, but there isn't a new exhaust.

Ilet it set for about 30 minutes and started it up again...no smoke. I drove it about a half block and POOF, smoke.

I talked to Sky andhe said he had a similar problem with the smoking/car runs fine. He said his rockers were too tight. I am thinking(hoping) that is the case.

Here is my analysis:

Rockers too tight. When it sits 30 min-1hr, no smoke until the lifters compress??? Is this pssible guys? Please help!!
