Default Still smoking...

Now this one has got us confused. My buddys car was running rough and puffing alot of white smoke and some black smoke. We ripped apart the top of the motor, replaced his head gaskets and every other gasket available. Had the heads resurfaced, pressure tested. The heads weren't very far off, and there are no cracks or anything in the heads. After getting everything back together the car still runs rough, and still puffs white smoke. Also, we filled the cooling system up with water first without any coolant just in case something like this was going to happen. We let it run for about 30 mins, to get all the gaskets set in, and let all the fluids burn off everything. I am not sure what to look for now as the problem?
