NEW HEADS and think the Head Gaskets just blew!!

Sounds to me like you did blow the head gasket, so the only thing I can think of is to pull the heads and replace them. Did you notice any detonation while you were at WOT? The only other symptom you can check to diagnose a blown head gasket that I can think of is bubbles in the radiator, but you said you already checked there. Did this happen after you installed a new set of heads/gaskets?
