How many miles on the truck??? Is this early morning condensation smoke? Does it do it mid day (in 65 F temps or higher)??? Are you losing any water???.. Oil look okay???
If you're getting anything other than early morning/cold weather condensation-- -you've got a head gasket or cracked head problem.
Pull your plugs and check for anti freeze-- if you've got green plugs-- prepare to change your head gaskets and/or replace your heads-- You wanted to go faster, now's your chance.

> Another thought, I get quite a bit of white smoke when I startup and for about 2-3 minutes..... Once I get the engine it clears up.. but if I start it up, and just sit there, white smoke pours out pretty good.. It dissepatates (sp??) after maybe 10 feet, but it is pretty thick when it comes out the exhaust... Maybe running rich at startup? How normal is this? I'll see if I can get my digi-cam and take a pic right after startup and post it.... See my previous e-mail for my mods :)
