i have a 1987 Saleen. Under hard acceleration and high rpm downshifts it smokes smells like oil. Any ideas what that's from?

Tail pipesSmoke from tailpipe or under hood?
If that was the case wouldn't it smoke from under hood? The bluish/white smoke comes out of the exhaustmight be an exhaust leak at the collector or the headers... Sometimes it can also be from the valve gaskets leaking onto the headers..
I thought you posted under hood, my mistake... If its bluish/white smoke that is not good.. Check your dip stick put the oil in your two finger tip and tap them together if it turns milky its a blown head gasket or something worst.. Make sure your engine is not running and don't every touch the oil while HOT...If that was the case wouldn't it smoke from under hood? The bluish/white smoke comes out of the exhaust
