I know there are plenty of posts in regards to my header but...

I have removed the rocker cover and cleaned it out, replaced the pcv, removed the plenum and cleaned it out (new spark plugs was the reason for removing fhe plenum), fitted a catch can between the pcv and plenum, new oil filter and oil... but

I'm still blowing white smoke on start up and after about 20 minutes of driving and getting pinging (usually hear that and then the smoke comes). If I pull over and let the smoke finish I can drive fine as long as I stay under 2000rpm (or go up a hill too steep).

Since I have fitted the catch can I have driven to and from work and on average have about 150ish mls of oil in there. 

Now I know the smoke on start up is oil sitting in the intake but that should be caught in the catch can..

Any help will be greatly appreciated .

In my knowledge base, white smoke means that water ( coolant) is getting in there.

 

Oil issues usually create blueish smoke.

Yeah it's whit/blue, definitely from the oil in the plenum making its way down
