Well, I went out, started it up, still lotsa white smoke, but I let it 
warm up.
Then started final torque down of head and found the source of the water.
Headbolts #9 and #10 (as per tightening sequence in manual) had water 
seeping up them, especially #9.
Torqued them down more, put it back together but no luck .. water still 
coming up.
I am getting depressed!
