thing is i really dont think its head gasket
it doesnt over pressure up,no leaks,no oil in water or water in oil

It could as you later said be a air lock as your heater doesn't go hot. This is either fixed by vacuum filling the system at the beginning so definatly no air locks! or a small crack in the head or a gasket leak!
have you been able to presure test both the cyinders and the coolant system when engine running? I know the last one is a pig but worth it. if so what are your readings as someone on here will be able to give you a heads up!
