I didn't think if it was the thermostat would put air in the system when I shut it off you can see air bubbles in the overflow

Yep, sounds like a head gasket repair. Just for giggles, try re-torquing your head studs. That may buy you alittle time.

^^ what he said sometimes it works. Worth a shot just retorque in sequence. Just as your replacing the hg start lower torque numbers until you get to where your head is going to be torqued at.
