Wait you only replaced one side of the headgaskets? The white smoke is either left over coolent from when the headgasket blew if that is the side that you replaced the headgasket, or it is coolent being burnt off from where the headgasket is giving out on the other side.

hahaha it would also be nice that you didnt post the same thing in two different sections of the forum. read the rules, now we are gonna get your post twice more than likely because they are gonna move it from the new member section

Is this car a 6 or 8? This is in the 4.6 section too.

Also, is this your first time ever using a keyboard? You need some more practice. Also, elementary level grammar lessons will do you nothing but good.
