Re: 20R overheating woes..

ok here's the lowdown. everything has been rebuilt or replaced  on this motor, I have a brand new water pump, new hoses new thermostat which opens at 170. The thermo opens when it should and the water pump is definitely flowing. I did hear a weird gurgle for a while but it went away, now when I lose fluid (which is a 50/50 mix) my rad water level is always around full which is really odd when i lose fluid. Im starting to think that maybe my rad has a clog somewhere, I also had a small pinhole leak around the bottom spout right where it meets the body of the rad that doesn't leak anymore. So I am trying to find a place to take it to get flushed boiled and all that jazz, should I find a new/rebuilt replacement? Anyone know where to find one?
oh and it tries to do it at all speeds and or rpm
