Lots of new parts but look/see if the fan is actually kicking on. Things will get hot a lot faster, especially when the A/C is on, or if the vehicle is parked and there is no movement of air through the radiator

You need to install the thermostat. Without it the coolant flows through the radiator to quickly and does not let the radiator dissipate heat fast enough from the coolant. So gradually the vehicle will overheat in time.
