we already check all the hoses and put coolant in it and it still over heats.

-Did ya check to see if the head was previously warped?
-Did you torque the head down properly?
-You did get a new headgasket right?

Check your coolant and see if it's kind of milky. If so you have headgasket/warped head issues.
