Default da9 integra smoking white

hey i have a 1990 acura integra and it is smoking white. the motor is a b18a1. everything is obd0 nothing really modified motor wise.. it has gsr crank and rods if it matters. stock ls head... ok so the engine smokes white. not at start up, but just once in a while. mostly when i run the car hard.. no overheating at all. driven it for hours around no heating. yes the smoke is white. cant really tell what it smells like... it has new head gasket. the car is running rich, but i dnt know why. injectors have been replaced, cat has been replaced, o2 has as well and also the gas regulator too. any ideas of why it could be smoking? an example of it smoking.. im driving hitting like 5k rpm 1st-3rdgear and i come to a complete stop at a stoplight, when i stop a cloud of white smoke floats forward. and stops....? i have nno idea.

how did you come to the conclusion that you are running rich?
white smoke CAN be the result of running rich.
you're not losing any coolant?

my car wouldn't pass smog so i know a place where they keep messing with the car until it passes smog... they told me that it was running way too rich that they couldn't make it pass smog.. that they didnt know where the problem was. no coolant is missing...

What does not pass? Smog results, what is in the exhaust?
