Do u Burn oil? Do u have to keep putting oil in? It might be ur piston walls, might have scored lines or you might need new piston rings.

For one thing he said white black... So If u mix them together its grey.. And grey smoke is oil.. White smoke and ur car running hot is head gasket and yes black is running hella rich.

u have a mixture of problems then u said its a swap so prolly somehting isint working right nad u are running rich at times causing the black smoke and the white is from coolant .. or the black smoke could be oil

basically now me and the mad scientist have to rip apart the block to replace the piston rings u fried..
