I think we got it. After a big burp when all the smoke came out we toped of the coolant and drained the overflow coolant that was sitting in the skid plate. The engine smoke was the coolant jumping up when we hot the throttle and hitting the engine and smoked. The radiator after many cleanings seems to not be smoking. The burp seems to have helped alot, even though it was pretty extreme and scared the crap out of me. We will see tomorrow. Thanks for all your help. I'll let u know the oitcome.
