Message I just got my car back from getting the valve covers replaced, the shop is ~1 hour away. Driving on the freeway, stuck in literally 2mph traffic stop and go for about 30 minutes. Got back up to speed, did something dumb like dropping from 5th to 4th at 80 mph and then flooring it, look behind me and theres a huge cloud of smoke. Pulled over, revved the engine, bluish smoke coming out of the exhaust. Got it home, revved in driveway, same smoke. That was last night. This morning, started it up and blue smoke again came out, mixed with the usual cold start smoke/steam. Car has 211k on it, Naturally aspirated, and straight piped. Please help, did I blow a ring or something??

Z's are a dream to drive and a nightmare to work on
