I got a new thermostat a new head gasket and a hose and my car is still blowing cold air. I know I have to get a transmission flush and a transmission pan do you think I need a heater core. Thank You.

try pulling fuse 6 & 8 with key on for 60 seconds see if actuators reset. tha tmay give you warm air. make sure heater hoses are both hot. if that doesn't work have it scanned for codes. auto parts cannot do that.
