Really?? Cause my head gasket was shot to shit on my DET and it ran the same with no smoke whatsoever and no gunky looking oil during oil changes only reason why I pulled the head was because my catch can was filling up too quickly and it would always tend to overheat. I shut it down before it got too high though.

I didn't say head gaskets have to white smoke... I said it wouldn't be blue smoke... but white instead. You guys are taking my post out of context.
