I just did the heads on my 199,0 350. Including buying a good used head (one was cracked) I spent about $600. That included grinding the valves and seats and surfacing the heads to remove any warps.

Have you pressure tested the cooling system? Intake manifold gasket is a common failure, can leak coolant into the engine.

Then You might want to check cylinders for coolant, do some compression tests.
Oooh it can leak coolant on the intake gasket on a TBI? If only heard of that on a vortec. Hmmm I'm gonna check out what you said to do on Friday. Thanks!!!!
