It sounds like it was running too rich for some reason and it was damaging the cats and that is why the check engine light was flashing. most of the time that the check engine light flashes is to warn that the cats are in danger of getting damaged.

damn bro, hope everything goes well for you. You should check your whole cooling system to make sure it was not due to overheating.

how'd you blow a head gasket and how'd you come to the conclusion that the head gasket was blown? do you have pictures of this... i'd really like to see it?

what type of car is this?
