Intake off. I cleaned the gaskets and heads. Did a smear of RTV around the ports and water passage and let it skin. Intake back on with bolts tightened in lots of small steps. No evident interference. Bolted it down tight. Let's see. I still need to put water and spark plugs in it. I figure if I still get smoke now with the replaced-again valve seals and the RTVed intake gaskets It'll have to be rocker studs and I'll just have to do them again more carefully. But that doesn't need intake off again so should be quicker. I sure hope something I've done works. I just don't feel like I've really found the cause still. Very frustrating.
