Default White smoke from my cossie!!

Hello all, just rebuilt my cossie and got it started up, and i've got alot of white smoke from the exhaust whilst its running, more so when it warms up, is this gonna be the turbo, cause i'm bloody sure it ain't the head gasket, it hasn't used any water and its clean and fresh still in the header tank and under the rocker/in the oil.
Any ideas?

Yes, it was overfuelling, have sorted it now though.
It was a mixup with the wiring on injector no.1 which basically meant that it wasn't pulsing the fuel but was just pouring it in, all solved now, just had to drain the oil and run it up with some cheap oil and drain again due to petrol contamination straight into the oil, still not as bad as some of the possibility's i suppose.
