1995 Ford Mustang V8 Two Wheel Drive Automatic na miles

I have a 95 mustang with a windsor and c4. It is carbed and no computer. I am getting a alot of white smoke from tail pipes at start up. After warm up. Driving. Basically it is constant. My oil has no coolant and my coolant has no oil. Both are very clean. The car drives great and oil pressure is great. The tranny is a RMVB c4 with a stall. It has a modulator valve but no line running to intake or carb. I'm aware that the first thing I should do is pull the plugs. Im working on that. I have to put the socket on a bench grinder to thin it as the socket will not not go over the plug due to the header flange's. The heads are d0 with larger valves and much porting. A buddy is going to put the socket on his grinder tom. So hopefully it will work and I can pull the plugs friday and do a compression and leakdown test. Since the oil and coolant are clean i'm kinda lost cause the oil and coolant are not mixing meaning a hg or craacked head or block. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks for reading.

Oil and coolant does not always mix in case of a head or head gasket failure
white smoke is an indication of coolant in the exhaust system

Thanks for the reply. I do agree with you as im certain thats what it is. I traded for this car a few months back and only put a couple of hundred miles on it and have not had a chance to take it to the track before this happened. I wasnt sure about if the fluids could still be clean with this problem. I could get lucky and it be the intake gasket also but not holding my breath. Good thing is its basic and carbed. Everything is easy to get to. Thanks again. Might be a good time to upgrade the heads. Lol
