Depending on what was wrong with you original engine there may be residual oil in the exhaust which is burning off.It could be that the oil or lube used in the engine's assembly is burning off from the combustion chambers. The piston rings may also have taken an usually long time to seat when the engine was first started also. Check your oil and coolant levels to make sure you don't have an internal leak.
Take it back to the shop that did the work and show them what is going on it may only be moisture from the new engine a lot of general motor engines do that when they are new however it could be a problem so take it back, I hope you got a warranty when you got the engine

How do you know what you need a tune up?
It may need reseting the valves and pistons, let the mechanic that fixed it know to allay your fears.1) call the shop & let them know
2)slowly break the engine in ie. do not maintain a constant speed on the highway , go 45 then 55 then 65 and back down , lots of city driving.
3)keep an eye on your oil level
it is normal for a new engine to burn blue until the rings seat , after 500 miles change the oil and filter the rings should have seated by then.

most of the people who answered your question don't know much about cars. blueish white smoke is oil burning with the gas in the cylinder could be cracked. no matter what the problem is take the car back to the place that changed the engines asapdrive about 30 high way miles (60+) to let the the engine and oil and all of the other fluids settle and u should be okay...just make sure its not overheating...if it is take it bak to the shop.
What causes an engine to misfire?
It would help if we knew what kind of car. Most rebuilt engines smoke for a few hundred miles as the rings seat. Change oil after first 10 minutes of running. Then change after 500 miles, then 1000 miles, then 3000 miles as normal. Use regular oil, not synthetic. Drive the engine at various speeds, loads and RPMs. No sustained steady-speed driving or really high RPMs for the first 250-500 miles. This helps the engine break-in properly.A winter time question about cars?
