Black smoke is fine. Just means it has a rich fuel mixture. It's blue smoke you don't want, you shouldn't have oil mixed with the combustion. Since it goes away after driving, I say it's the valve seals for sure.

need to take a close look at the bottom side of the head. I took .038 off a 22re head and the walls got kinda thin. may have a small crack in it from taking so much off.
