06 Apex GT coolant problems

I have an 06 Apex GT that I have owned for 4 years. I've never had any problems until I threw a stud and punctured the front heat exchanger. I have a buddy who owns a welding shop so we fixed the leak right away. Ever since then I can't keep the coolant in it? It gets up to temp, fills the overflow then spills on the ground. I thought vapour lock so I raised the nose almost vertical while up to temprature 3 times and its still doing the same thing? Any solutions?
 

Oh, so there is!!! I guess i'll just run it and bleed off the air. Or is there a special technique?
 
Someone for sure will know the procedure to bleed it, i believe you need to elevate the rear of the sled to bleed it properly.

I had a friend with the same issue after a weld repair to the front exchanger. Turns out the weld actually stopped coolant circulation. Had to change it out.
