Unhappy Smoking.....really really really bad....HELP

Can someone please help me. I bought the car about 3 months ago and it was fine.

1988 SE, Automatic. Intake, RB Header, Bonez High Flow cat

Normal rotary engine puff of smoke, when you first start. Now it's getting worse, it is puffing more and more smoke (oil, smells like a lawnmower) every day. It happens when i first start up, a little. Then after i drive for a little bit, it smokes alot on decelleration. Then i pull into a parking space and pit it into park, idle rases a bit then huge amounts of oil smoke consumes the car, can't see a thing. Fills up the interior.....very bad. I need help bad, really bad. I was looking into reman. engines, but very $$$$.
Another thing that may be causing this...my car idles really really high...usually at around 2200-2400 in park or neutral, and 1200 in gear. What could this be and how can i fix it?

just keep the oil topped off. It will last quite awhile, I put over 40K on a mosquito killer before it **** an Apex Seal
