Default Re: Ok so a brand new radiator and it still runs hot

Everything was running fine, you replaced the head with one that makes the car run cooler, you replaced the radiator.

What makes a car run hot?
Clogged radiator, but you put in a new one.
Blown head gasket, but you replaced the head and checked for bubbles in radiator.
Did you check compression to be sure the gasket is good?
Timing, Have you timed it using Marco's web site?
