Why is my ls1 smoking its 2000 camaro ss?
Rings or valve seals are the most common. Depends on when it smokes and if it is blue=burning oil. If it smokes blue all of the time, I'd check the compression, that might point to rings. If it is at start up or after idleing a few minutes then taking off, I'd check the valve seals. The LS1s have a shotty PCV system, some have added a catch can and LS6 valve covers to cure the slight smoking. However, if you have bad rings or valve seals, doing those 2 things won't solve your problem...
