Check out "XLR8 diesel trucks". I have no experience with them, but know they're in the area you asked about. They're 1/2 hour south of Gettysburg.

Are you absolutely sure it's head gaskets?

90% sure. Getting high coolant pressure up to 15/16 and blowing coolant when tow long distance. Gets up in pressure empty as well but does not blow coolant yet.

I've used xlr8 for some stuff I didn't have tools for. Good group to deal with, or at least that was my experience
