bad smoke
ok well i have my new exhaust installed, i painted all the pipes with the hi heat paint that you get in the rattle can, its smokin in the engine bay, and under the car, is that normal, is the paint just burning off?
Also, i know my car needs a carb adjustment or timing done, but when that is fixed will the car not blow so much smoke out the tail pipes? The way it is now there is no way that its gonn pass the sniffer test.

Thats normal. Its just the paint 'baking' itself onto your parts. Totally normal.
And that smoke out the exhaust... if its black, you just need a carb adjustment probably. Its just running rich.
