likely a head gasket, a shop should be able to conclusively diagnose.
Reminds me of a high performance mustang V8 I replaced the head gaskets on, it was a friends car and a shop had diagnosed bad head gasket and wanted some big $$$ for the job. Replaced both gaskets and a week later the car caught fire and burnt up.
Turns out the problem was a leaky freeze plug and not the head gaskets.
