'88 conv rebuilt engine smoking white

the car was smoking white smoke (a lot of it) so I took the engine to get rebuilt. Now the car still smokes and I have a leak in one of the fuel injectors.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Or maybe point to someone in the Wisconsin area that works on RX7s?
I love the car and I don't want to sell it but I have had it parked for 4 years now.
thanks
Raymond

Isn't white smoke a coolant leak?

You may have a series of problems on your hand. Whoever rebuilt it didn't look at much. I had coolant problems due to a leaky cap.

i think that I may have a lot of issues too, that is why I am looking for someone that knows how to work on them (other than the dealer) to fix it for me.
