Well it looks as if you are getting some bad advice. When you change a head gasket, unless it is a faulty gasket it should have a few things done. It should be checked for flatness on the head and block. It should be no more than.003" on either side. Then it should be checked for cracks by looking at a clean head /block surface. Blocks don't crack to much but heads do, more so if they are aluminum. Usually on a haead gasket replacement the smoke clears within 20 or so miles. Valve seasl will give a bluish colored smoke not white. If you are using coolant the level should be down. If it is find another garage to take it to as this one doens' tseem to know what to do.
