i am getting a lot of steam from the exhaust
I replaced the
Freeze Plugs
Head Gasket
Water Pump
Thurmostat
Intake Manifold Gasket
Exhaust Manifold Gasket

Engine does need a flush and i suspect it is Raditor clogged or Catalytic Converter clogged.

Thanx for all your help.

You need to verify that you truly getting coolant into the exhaust as you suspect. This could be a cracked head or block if the engine overheated. A compression test of each cylinder and/or a pressure test of the cooling system should reveal this leak.
