First off, do have a temp gauge or are you just seeing the coolant come out of the overflow tank?
Are you using an AST or is it eliminated? What coolant pressure caps are you using? Have you pressure tested the cooling system?

Doing these will help troubleshoot exactly what the problem is.. I'm not saying it is combustion gas. I'm just saying there are a few things which can cause the coolant to push out of the overflow tank. At some point, you are going to have to start troubleshooting the issue with the suggestions in this thread and at least rule out what is not the problem by testing.
