Default IM Question? Smoke, no good!

I just installed a Skunk 2 IM on my 91 CRX Si (D16a6). After driving for a minute, smoke starts coming from around the hood. Now I know the smell is coolant burning, but I can't figure out what it is, or where it is coming from. I put a new IM gasket on, but still it smokes, and I'm afraid my engine will overheat. Could it be a mixed up line, or what? Does anyone have a pic of the vaccum lines and coolant lines, possiby of another Skunk 2 installed, or maybe a diagram. The Manifold doesn't have every connector that the stock one has so we had to T some lines, wondering if maybe I put one on wrong. Thanks for the help ahead of time.

it really hard to funk up a d16 intake mani install..... im guessing if u changed the gasket that you either didnt torque them down right or one of your clamps is loose. Check over all your clamps. Also instead of driving it let the car warm up and rev the engine and find the leaks. Put money that u didnt tighten a clamp good enouph

I believe someone had this same problem recently. New throttle body gasket did the trick

Check all the hoses to the intake manifold to see if a coolant line is loose...........
