Re: severe smoke

sounds like headgasket,when you turn it on does it pour out of the tail pipe? also check the radiator if theres oil floating on the water its for sure the head gasket

the smoke could be caused by a blown head gasket, like mentioned before, or leak from the valve shafts ( there is a little umbrella seal in there that may be screwed up). You may also need new rings.

Re: severe smoke

Over-filling the oil, then driving it are BAD!! Think of that little crankshaft spinning at anywhere from 700RPM to 6000(yikes)RPM, slapping the oil in the oilpan. It's bad, mmmmkay?
