Angry I think im screwed .... help. :-(

2001 GT 4.6 SOHC. I have a uses stock block 50k on it. Seen it run before was fine . New patriot stage 2 heads. Stock cams.

Start the car. Well hell breaks loose. Idles great and smooth. Then warms up and ****s the bed. Hesitation and oil (blue smoke) out the tail pipes. Test drove it. Higher rpm it smooths out. Not rough. Thinking **** bad motor. Wrong timing? Put head gaskets on wrong side?! Do compression test. Since oil in cylinders. I can only do the wet test. Lowest psi 180 highest is 200. So they are close? Dont think anything bent or broken? Also spark plugs on driver side are clean. Passenger side carboned up.. any ideas????

Well for 1 it probably needs a tune, the blue smoke are you sure its blue oil smoke and just not running pig rich?
