well if its just smoking after you leave it sit a few, its not a head gasket. though you will end up changing that when you get the valves done.

sounds like bad valve seals to me.

i would say a good week project if you are clueless. even then you might have to be waiting on a machine shop to replace the seals and do the valve seats up right. and when you go to pick up the head...bring gas with you. pour it in the intake and exhaust ports and make sure they seal properly. if they wont...youll notice the fuel seep through the seat.
