Default 95 accord smoking problem

just had head rebuilt by a reputable shop. engine has 180 compression on all cylinders. could the piston rings still be bad. or does anybody know any other possible answer- reasons why it could still smoke. head got rebuilt because of a nitrous system, it burnt the valves up!

Remove your exhaust manifold and take a look at the valves. Are they oovered in oil?
If they are, remove the valve springs and inspect the valve stem seals. Be sure to check the valve guides for excessive clearances.
