Have you bought the test kit from NAPA yet? It's not expensive and will give you more of a clear answer then what you have already.
Try to get it done today my friend and let us know the results. Pick up a rad cap and thermostat too while you're there as they aren't expensive either.

Well block test turned out well, no color change at all!!!!
Also replaced the rad cap just to be safe. Ran the car at idle for about 20 mins playing with the throttle methodically giving some high revs to get the temps up, with no A/C running the fans are kicking on as they should. So im stumped but happy.

that can kinda come back on you... I know a guy who had a lower end rod knock in a Corvette, had a performance shop replace just that rod's bearing which cured the knock and he traded it in... after the car sold from the dealership, the new owner put about 300 miles on it before it started knocking again... long story short, the original owner paid to put a new motor in the car...
