No oil in the coolant, no antifreeze in the engine or exhaust? All sparkplugs look the same? I do not think you have a good case for pulling the head yet. I would pull the water pump to look it over. Had an 83 that had a pump with a bad shaft or something and the impeller rubbed on the block, really hurting the cooling performance. A new pump had the proper clearance and fixed the problem.
