Takeuchi TL 230 bubbling overflow tank

$

I have a takeuchi TL-230 with a kubota V3307 turbo engine. The coolant overflow tank is bubbling and flowing out the overflow tube. This happens on cold start and after running a while, so it is not boiling over. I have tested the radiator at the cap and pressure builds instantly to 30 psi. I have done a compression check and compression seems to be within spec 500,490,500,510 psi, I know there is a slight variance between compression readings, but not too extreme. The radiator cap has been replaced also. I am looking for some other possibilities before I remove the head and check the head gasket. I was considering the EGR cooler, but I believe the pressure builds too fast at the radiator inlet for the cooler to be the issue. Anyone have any ideas or could the head gasket be the problem?
Thanks
