Default valve seals on a 2014 hemi

hello, first post here.
my truck puffs a lot of blue smoke when I fire it up, then goes away, it will do it a little when accelerating, I added a procharger, torque converter, and had new lifters and cam installed, I did over rev it once and it started ticking, that was when I replaced the the parts mentioned, the procharger was done before camshaft.. they shop had the valve seals, but they forgot to install them... I know, never go back there again..my question is can this be done with the heads still on the truck? and is there a vid that I can checkout the process?

So joeyd1963, tell the DodgeForum how was/did your valve stem seal task work out? I was just about to suggest an approach until I noticed this is a 10 month old post. Maybe by now, you've got that beast chocking up the freeway miles.

This is where I found the Forum was a bit weak/lax in getting the ones that came here looking for suggesting, hints in ways to help remedy their problems but not coming back, taking the time to tell the Forum their route to living with less stress. Tell about the pot-holes if certain steps aren't watched.
Just not enough follow-up with happy endings from ones that were here seeking help.

Keep driving a 'Goat".
