well..putting that sealer stuff in it was the wrong thing to do..clogs the whole system. Wouldnt be too suprised if you blew a head gasket on it. sounds alot like it ..but maybe not. first thing you should do is flush the system..then make sure you get all the air from the system ( burping it). did you put an OEM T stat in? Subes are partial to OEM ones and have troubles with aftermarket. The Radiators on yours are prone to clogging also... feel the radiator for hot and cold spots...also make sure you dont have a hose collapsing when its running... there is a start for you..
