Default Update on overheating problem

I know some of you guys were wondering if the advice you gave me helped with my problem, thread: (Now its overheats to a new level)

So today i dropped the car off at the chevy dealer, they are going to replace teh head gaskets, plane the heads, clean out the radiator, replace thermostat, replace all gaskets they encounter, bleed the air out, change the oil, and replace oil filter, new spark plugs, and a bunch of other little stuff...

I should have it back early next week.

Thanks for all the advice, it helped me make an educated decision, and be better off in the long run.

I will post as soon as the car gets back to me.

Alot of members helped narrow the problem down to it being a bad head gasket, so i just wanted to update those who cared that it was in the shop getting fixed and that it was actually a head gasket like many suggested, pretty self explaning
