Thanks for the quick reply.
I do apologize, I'm learning a lot from these cars.

Symptoms: Whitish smoke (no blueish tint) coming from right side of exhaust only even after warm up. Car shifted fine but now is sluggish to go into gear and the A/T fluid is low. I have not put the car on the lift to look at it yet. Not leaking A/T fluid. I thought (incorrectly) that it had a bad trans vacuum modulator and the A/T fluid was being sucked into the engine.

I'm not low on radiator fluid as my first guess was a blown head gasket. After 10 or 15 minutes of driving, the white smoke does disappear.
