Default smoke while haaard acel! input !

well the car runs good .. but while driving hard and over 5k it smokes ,, its oil ..

thinking maybe the rings or valve seals ..

its not too bad but it only does it under hard acelaration ...

i put some restore 4 and some stop smoke and havent seen much of it but still wonder what its most likely .. im going to do a rebuilt on it anyways so its not too big of a deal ..

input ?!

COULD BE RINGS OR VALVE SEALS, PERFORMING A COMPRESSION test and or leak down test can verify those assumptions
