Was just wondering the same thing. If a bad head gasket is letting hot combustion gases blow directly into the cooling system, could it be that it's just heating up the coolant too fast for the radiator to remove the heat? But that wouldn't explain why the bottom of the radiator is cold, unless you are not letting it run long enough (I'd be scared too!). Here's a theory - a piece of the blown gasket broke loose and is blocking a bunch of the small inlet tubes at the top of the radiator. That would explain why the radiator is not removing much heat, but still lets water from your garden hose through the unblocked holes. It would also explain the spray from the exhaust, but it doesn't jive with the good compression test. Does it still spray when you start up?
