I Need help asap please.... exhaust


So I just finished installing new shorty headers on my 02 v6. Smoke is coming out through the engine compartment. It seems to be coming out between headers n head. How can I fix this? Btw I installed them w brand new gaskets. Did I forget something? Do the gaskets need a sealant? in between the head? HELP HELP HELP.. I need to fix this asap because i will be needing my car during the week//
