I would buy the kit and check to see if any exhaust gases are in your coolant. This certainly could be the answer to your problem.
As an FYI, the reason I did not additionally suggest a compression/leakdown testing is from his info seems his motor was recently rebuilt. Readings could be misleading if motor is not yet broke in.
