cracked radiator while driving, noticed by temp gauge going into red. The craked plastic top replaced with metal. The problem is that its builts high pressure keep on bursting tubing(horsepipe). take-off power is lost since this problem. What could be the cause?

Bad head gasket, or head will cause an over pressuring of the cooling system. There is a chemical test that can be done to find exhaust gases in the cooling system.
