I did use all new gaskets. Maybe i'll unbolt the manifold and just double check that everything is seated correctly. What it was though it seems to have stopped or at least gotten better. I can see any more smoke. I'll have to check again tonight when I get home.

As the gaskets heat up for the first time, they will smoke.
This is normal.

Thank GOD you didn't rebuild the entire engine.
When you see how much smoke it makes, you'd think it was on FIRE !

if you got cleaner, or oil, or just about anything on the motor or the manifold back there, it would've smoked a little the first time the car got warm, but should not do it once it burns off. def change the oil soon though.
