Before you pump it up to 5-6 psi, check the heater core and the right side of the radiator (passenger side). It may not leak until the engine gets to operating temperature.

What are you pouring in every 50 miles? Just distilled water? Water boils at 212F, but the coolant mix is closer to 250-260F if I remember right.
