Smoke coming from hood

I have an 02 z 28 that I got serviced about 3 weeks ago. I had an over heating problem and it was the radiator cap causing the problem. So I had that replaced and the colling system flushed out. Today i saw smoke coming from the hood but the car was not over heating (at least not according to the gauge). Right before it happened i noticed a strong smell of coolant. i looked under the hood and did see any leaks or anything. Does anyone know why it could be doing this. The car is still running strong and also the car is bone stock. Thanks for the help.

Re: Smoke coming from hood

check the coolant overflow level when hot, they may have overfilled the system when flushed??
