Ok I have a 98 v6 mustang and I just put new gaskets on my driver side head. my car was shaking the first time I start it, and there’s a little bit of white smoke coming from the back side bye the # 6 cylinder. It smells like some thing burning and my car revs over 1 grand the check engine light is not on . The second time I start it, It was fine for a bit then did the same thing. Can you tell me what’s going on? Did I tighten the head bolts Wright? Or is the timing just off?, and or is the smoke just the new gaskets just burning in to place or some thing?

Thank you
