I have an 85 IROC-Z 305 tpi. i recently replaced head gaskets and intake gasket and a few other things. The car will start but after a few second of running it starts to smoke. really thick white smoke. What is causing this? After the smoking start the car will die unless you give it more gas.

What does the smoke smell like the car is burning? Oil, coolant, too much gas?

Never paid much attention i guess but its extremly white thick smoke the car almost disappears in the smoke.

I would guess coolant or oil, most likely coolant maybe from the head gasket you just replaced. Not sure just a guess but I would keep an eye on the coolant to see if it's disappearing.

Did U Have Your Heads Surfaced? Because They Might Be Warped Or Cracked.

oops,
I hope the problem has since been resolved over the last year and half since the last post.
Remeber guys, a thread older than 3 months should be concidered for reference only.
