Impala LS 3.8L

Runs Hot. I've tried replacing everything; thermostat, water pump, radiator, and even the engine. Coolant leaked into the heads in the engine, had to replace it. After a year the car started running hot again. In the winter my heat goes out because the coolant leaks. Now the car is parked in the back yard. What a waste of money.
