Smoke from where... engine, tail pipe, or kitchen?

You probably didn't purge all the air from the cooling system and/or didn't open the heater valve while purging. Also if the thermostat was installed incorrectly then the thermostat may not open in a timely manner or not at all. Did you do these things correctly?
