Default Smoking engine

Hello I have just rebuilt my Silvia engine (Rebore, new pistons, rings, bearings and re-con turbo etc.) and it's blowing out blue/white smoke when it gets hot (the tailpipe is really oily) . Just wondered if anyone else has had this problem after a rebuild and will it go away eventually?

Also the fuel economy has always been really poor (20mpg), is this normal?
