White smoke is usually always in relation to oil burning.
Pull the plugs out to see if they have oil on em.

blue smoke is reletive to oil burning
white smoke is reletive to coolant burning

did the head get torqued down right?

or did you get the gasket lined up right... if so try some black RTV and put a new head gasket.. put a lil RTV on both sides of the gasket.... not too much just enough to seal it.....

its also a good idea to retourqe the head after letting the engine idle till it reaches normal operating temp

are you sure it was an 87 head onto a 93? i believe they are completely different motors. 93 was when the mazda became just like the ford ranger, motor and all.
