Whenever a Banshee starts smoking heavy out of the right cylinder. The crank seal is bad. The trans oil will get sucked into the cylinder and burns.

Also could be a hole in the top of the piston. So the fuel no longer burns but just goes right through.

Or even could be a leaking head gasket. Not as likely but could be.

The seal is the most likely. You will have to split the case to replace. Do both sides ofcourse, and rebuild the topend at the same time.

white smoke I would assume a bad head gasket (coolant leaking in to your cylinders) simple check is to just pull your head and look it over. you will notice on the head burn coloration where/if its leaking in.
