I've checked the fan 2X and it pulls, as it should. It's a new surge tankk, form Southern, so it should be OK, but would a bad sealing cap give these symptoms? The spewing cold coolant has to mean that the radiator isn't seeing the coolant, i would think.

Thomas, where would I find a water pressure gauge to put in the intake?

I spoke with Southern, and the engine was run off and on for 2 hours, wiht this WP, so those things seem unlikely, and they don't use the one way head gaskets.

thanx again. steve
