Were you the one to replace the engine or did you get it like that? If there is coolant loss than it is usually a small leak but if it is only at startup I doubt it is that bad. Try getting a pressure test on the system.

I also experienced a cloud of white smoke at start-up. Turns out my best friend and chronic pot smoker was firing up the one-hitter in the front seat.
