Hey I finally got done with all the valve seals and got everything back together and the exhaust is not as bad as before. :banana:

There still is some semi heavy exhaust though and the smoke coming out is like a clear blue color.

Any opinions on whether the carb should be adjusted or not...

Blue smoke means oil. I would leave the carb alone. May be the piston rings. How much oil does it use?

If it runs with a dangerous crowd and spends a lot of money.

Yep.. blue smoke is oil... black smoke would be too much gas.
