Question 79 928 poors out blue smoke under heavy acceloration.

It doesnt smoke when its first started, only when you floor it. Am I looking at replacing the rings, or valve guide seals? The car has only 92,000 miles on it, so I wouldnt think the rings are bad. On the other hand, it doesnt smoke on startup. That leaves me to believe that the valve guide seals are keeping the oil from leaking down into the cylinder walls while the car is parked.

Is there a way to tell? Pulling the heads will be a lot easier than pulling the whole motor.
