The pressure means that the temps are high somewhere, which would be the head. And the temp sensor is in the head and it reads hot.
There are many places to loose coolant. Going for the HG might not be the right thing to do.
AT? coolant in AT fluid? Level would be high and milky?
What does the oil look like? milky?
Any signs of oil or coolant loss at the GH edges?
Tightened all hose clamps?
Inspected WP shaft seal and adapter?
Checked for coolant at air box/heater core drain?
Smell coolant at AC ducts?
Get floresent dye for coolant and a UV lamp if needed.
