first off.... WRITE IN SENTENCES. Use PERIODS so people can read what you wrote.

you probably blew another one because the head is probably warped.
Pull the head, send it to the machine shop with the block, have them surfaced then put it back together

I have the same problem with the overflow tank over filling. I have changed the thermostat but I'm still losing coolant. Right now I'm tempted to bring it in to a shop to get it checked out but if anyone has any suggestions please let us know.
