No water in oil does not say head or head gasket can be bad or good.
Have you replace or checked the thermo stat?

Re: 92 bravada overheating help!

have you gotten your block flushed? somtimes cheap antifreeze gums up and blocks vital coolant highways. get it flushed professionally if you haven't already.
