sound to me that the radiator needs flushed or replaced It's probably is disapating the engine heat as the coolant is heat soaked into the coolant You must have had a reason to work on it Are you sure you installed the right water pump Some pumps run clockwise others turn counter clockwise , serpentine belted pumps that run on the outside of the belt turn counter clockwise Could be the parts man gave you the wrong pump Good Luck
