Losing lots of coolant... not sure where or how?

Ok, i just replaced the heater core and then this problem arised to where i'm losing massive amounts of coolant. Problem started about five days after heater core was in. No smell of coolant and not seeing any coolant coming down aquarium drain pipe. Dealer has told me that my radiator core is leaking but thats been this way for a while and only caused me to refill every other two weeks and a half depending on how much i drive. Cannot find anything leaking while running, no spots under car after sitting for a while, no puddles hidding in engine bay cradle. Completely bamboozled. I've had a blown head gasket before but i could tell a difference in how the motor felt. Motor feels perfectly fine and runs smooth. Looking for ideas, hoping not head gasket, no money to have dealer do it or buy parts at momment. If it is head gasket, is there any thorough write up on the procedure and exactly which tools are required. If anybody had done there on headgasket, would appreciate knowing what you had to do exactly. Know that throttle body will have to be disconneted from intake, exhauset header from turbo, fuel line depressurised, sepertine belt removed,.....have an idea as to the process but not the actual procedure.
