Default white smoke from tailpipe - antifreeze

Need help, My 91 civic has white smoke following the car. I already replaced the head and head gasket thinking that the head was bad. I bought a used one that looked pretty good and replaced the head gasket. It still is using a great amount of anti freeze and is steaming from the tail pipe. What else could cause this? Thankyou, any help appreciated.

[8D] Ok, you guys, since no answers to my question, I decided to pull the used head back off and get another one which looked even better for $100.00 put it on with new head gasket and intake and exhaust manifold gaskets and replace the gasket on the top hose housing to head and it started right up and no smoke. Been driving it ever since. So don't let someone sell you a used head that they say it is ok till you get it checked out.
