Hi:
It sounds like a head gasket. Remove the head, check for evidence that the gasket was leaking. Also, check the head for cracks or warping.

Let me know what you find.

I would take a look to see if your head is warped, those aluminum heads arent very friendly with heat so you more than likely warped it
