[malkintent]

ead gaskets replaced
head gone through valves done, new seals and 135lb springs
arp studs
egr delete
new down pie
cp4 to cp3 swap
new glow plugs
cold air intake
def delete new exhaust

things i had checked

pistons are good
cyl walls good

after truck was back together things i had checked

comp great
injector balance rates are great
no code runs awesome

then 1 week after rebuild started smoking blueish at idle when you give it gas big smoke till its running and clears out till you idle for 5 min or so.
also went through a gallon of oil in 1000 miles

took it back in and had it diagnosed as bad turbo, replaced it with a bd stage one

back together runs great but it went through another gallon in 1000 miles still smoking at idle.
