Default Coolent everywhere!!

I have just encountered a problem with my 1995 LT1. Coolent sprayed out of the catch tank towards the front of the car. My car never overheated, no codes were thrown.

A little history on the car...about 2 and a half months ago my heater control valve broke, spewing all of my coolent out. The car overheated before I could get it off the road, but not long enough to do any damage. I replaced the little plastic control valve, the thermostat (since it got so hot), the radiator cap on the surge tank by the firewall and replaced the coolent.

The car has been fine since then. Today the coolent spewed everywhere, but never came close to overheating, it was running at normall operating temp. What would have caused this??? There are no leaks in the hoses, and all caps are on correctly. PLEASE HELP!!
