White smoke = burning coolant = usually blown head/head gasket.

Blue smoke = burning oil = usually bad rings/valve seals.

coolant was leaking from two outlets that were plugged wit two caps.

i am wondering your tappets knocking a bit ... i assume they did a compression test to tell you your rings are worn maybe even a leak down ... why not rebuild and bring the engine back to standard i never quite understood this buying of second hand engines aka pig in blanket when u already know what problems you got with your current engine and its solution ... unless you want a power upgrade or dont know a good mechanic to do the rebuild.

My interest is because i recently almost got burnt to death in car that had an engine swap that appeared to be done wrong wasnt my car and no one was injured.
