Default overheating problem

what's going on all, a friend of mine has a 95 legend and it overheats. Fan wasn't working, a leak located at the bottom hose, and thermostat was stuck closed. I got that all fixed. Got both fans to work, fixed leak, and added a new thermostat. STILL OVERHEATS! Help . Thank you.

Probably so. Also, if you used an aftermarket thermostat, that usually creates problems as well. I've had nothing but trouble from aftermarket thermostats in Legends. But yea, once you overheat them real good, the head gaskets are usually done.
