Re: still coolent in exh after replacing head gaskets

First thing I would try is a Vacuum test.  This would eliminate a leak 
of any kind from the top end if it passes.  I assume you checked the 
cylinder wall for taper or barreling, and checked the clearance between 
the piston and the cylinder wall.  Just replacing a gasket would not 
help if oil were getting past your rings.  You may need to replace the 
piston rings.

Also check to see if there is oil in your air filter.  You could be 
sucking oil into your cylinders from the top as it draws in air through 
the air filter.  I suspect you have blow piston rings.  Without any more 
details its hard to tell.  I assume you have also checked your oil 
pressure to make sure the lamp is not burnt out and that you are getting 
enough oil through your engine.

If you have done all that then you need to do a pressure test to see if 
there is a crack somewhere in the case between the cylinder and the 
crakecase.

Good luck, hope this helps get you started.  Pardon the pun.
