O.K. Rob ;

Vacuum 1st. then peer in with a bright light ~ if you see more crud between the 
piston and cylinder , that's when the grease comes in handy ~ you smear it 
around the cylinder then rotate the engine and the debris sticks to the grease 
on the cylinder walls where you can wipe it out .

If ,once it's buttoned up , it begins to smoke blue or white , don't panic , 
just go back in and replace the pistons & rod bearings.....

I've forgotten your original post , you're doing head work because of valve 
troubles , not smoking correct ? .
